About hospitals in Lexington

Hospitals deliver inpatient medical and surgical care, emergency services, and diagnostic testing. Medicare-certified hospitals receive CMS star ratings that cover mortality, safety, readmission, patient experience, and timely and effective care.

Think of ratings as a beginning, not a final word. Look at the inspection findings, staffing levels, and quality measures that sit behind each score, and verify that the services you actually need are available.

When you are choosing for yourself or someone you care for in Lexington, KY, tour in person if you can, ask whether space is currently available, and confirm Medicare and Medicaid participation. Also ask how the provider manages care planning, keeps families informed, and handles concerns that arise after hours.
