Inpatient rehab hospitals: find and compare acute rehab facilities
CMS quality data for 1,222 Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facilities: how often patients return home or to the community, potentially preventable hospital readmissions, falls with major injury, pressure ulcers and infections. Every figure comes from official CMS data. Medicare.gov says these are sometimes called inpatient rehab facilities, IRFs, acute care rehabilitation centers or rehabilitation hospitals.

How CMS compares inpatient rehabilitation facilities with the national rate
Rate of successful return to home or community from an IRF (October 2023 to September 2025): CMS reports that 255 performed better than the national rate, 756 performed no different than the national rate, 171 performed worse than the national rate, and 14 were too small to report.
Rate of potentially preventable hospital readmissions 30 days after discharge from an IRF (October 2023 to September 2025): CMS reports that 31 performed better than the national rate, 1,084 performed no different than the national rate, 67 performed worse than the national rate, and 14 were too small to report.
Rate of potentially preventable hospital readmissions during the IRF stay (October 2023 to September 2025): CMS reports that 38 performed better than the national rate, 1,071 performed no different than the national rate, 74 performed worse than the national rate, and 13 were too small to report.

How to read these measures
Names and definitions. Each measure is shown under the name CMS uses on Medicare.gov. Where CMS publishes more than one figure for a measure (for example a risk-standardized rate and an observed rate), the page names each figure the way CMS's data dictionary does.
Comparison with the nation. For returning home or to the community, readmissions and infections, CMS assigns each facility a category such as “Better than the National Rate”, “No Different than the National Rate” or “Worse than the National Rate” (for infections, the national benchmark). This site quotes that category as CMS published it and does not add its own judgment.
The U.S. figure. The national figure comes from CMS's national data file. For discharge to community it is the national observed rate, and for readmissions the national unadjusted average rate, while the facility figure is risk-standardized.
Missing values. When CMS does not publish a value, the page shows CMS's footnote instead, for example when the number of cases or patient stays is too small to report.
What Medicare covers in an inpatient rehabilitation facility
Medicare.gov says inpatient rehabilitation can help a person recovering from a serious surgery, illness or injury who needs an intensive rehabilitation therapy program, physician supervision, and coordinated care from doctors and other health care providers (including therapists).
- Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance) covers medically necessary care in an inpatient rehabilitation facility or unit (also called an inpatient “rehab” facility, IRF, acute care rehabilitation center or rehabilitation hospital). Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance) covers doctors' services during the stay.
- Covered care includes rehabilitation services (physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech-language pathology), a semi-private room, meals, nursing services, prescription drugs, and other hospital services and supplies.
- Medicare doesn't cover private duty nursing, a phone or television in the room (if charged separately), personal items (except those given as part of the hospital admission pack), or a private room unless it is medically necessary.
- The patient's health care provider must certify a medical condition that requires intensive rehabilitation, continued medical supervision and coordinated care.
What the patient pays each benefit period in 2026, according to Medicare.gov:
- Days 1–60: $0 a day, after the $1,736 deductible.
- Days 61–90: $434 a day.
- Days 91–150: $868 a day while using lifetime reserve days (60 days in total, usable once in a lifetime).
- After day 150: all costs.
Medicare.gov says the deductible isn't charged again if it was already charged for a prior hospital stay in the same benefit period, for example when the patient is transferred directly from an acute care hospital or admitted within 60 days of leaving a hospital.
