Missouri across the line

The nation’s hospitals within 0.05 of CMS’s line that this site estimates, Missouri’s in full ink: scores a hair apart, money all or nothing.

Figure 4. 4 of the nation’s 141 hospitals within 0.05 of CMS’s line that this site estimates are Missouri’s: 1 cut, about $249K by this site’s estimate, and 3 not cut, where a cut would have been about $743K.

3 more within 0.05 have no estimate, and Maryland’s 2 are exempt.
