Ohio across the line

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

Figure 4. 6 of the nation’s 141 hospitals within 0.05 of CMS’s line that this site estimates are Ohio’s: 3 cut, about $616K by this site’s estimate, and 3 not cut, where a cut would have been about $984K.

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