Figure 1. Heart failure costs the most: +0.0321 over its peer median, $4,459 of the modeled cut, because each 0.01 of its ratio is worth $1,364.

Bars: this hospital’s cut. Dashed line: the average across every hospital in the FY2027 program. “n/a”: the hospital was not in that year’s file. The cap on the cut changed over the years, so a cut in one year is not the same size of penalty in another. Shaded: the years whose data reach the claims of January 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020, which CMS left out.

Each dot is where this hospital’s cut fell, in each year, among today’s hospitals (those in the FY2027 program), from the smallest cut at the bottom to the largest at the top; the shaded part is the hospitals that were cut. A place among hospitals compares across years where the cap and the measure changed, which the cut itself does not.
