Genesis earns five-star CMS hospital rating

Genesis HealthCare System announced it has once again been recognized with a Five-Star U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Overall Hospital Quality Star Rating — the highest rating a hospital can receive. Genesis is among the top 8% of hospitals in the United States to earn five out of five stars in the 2026 CMS Hospital Quality Ratings.

“The Five-Star Overall Rating for quality is a testament to the persistent high-quality work and determination of our entire Genesis team,” said Scott Wegner, M.D., chief medical officer for Genesis HealthCare System. “We strive for exceptional patient care and continuously implement innovative quality and safety practices. This recognition further highlights our community’s continued trust in choosing Genesis.”

CMS calculates the Overall Hospital Quality Star Rating using publicly reported quality measures grouped into five areas: mortality, safety of care, readmission, patient experience, and timely and effective care.

The Overall Star Rating is published on Medicare.gov’s Care Compare to help patients and families compare hospitals based on national measures.
