Analytic Briefs

Our analytic briefs summarize the results of targeted analyses focused on hospital measure results overall and stratified by hospital characteristics, socioeconomic status, and race; on trends in measure results; and on the comparison of index versus post-acute care payment patterns. Here you'll find the analytic briefs for the 2011-2014 and 2012-2015 measure reporting years.

You can view the analytic briefs by analysis type or by measure
