Values and averages are published by CMS (July 2026 release); "—" means CMS publishes no average for that measure. Where CMS assigns a risk-adjusted category ("Better than", "As" or "Worse than Expected"), that category is shown — we never rank those measures ourselves. For the other measures, "Better than X%" is computed by DialysisCompare: the share of Nevada facilities with at least 25 patients in the measure that this center does better than; centers with fewer patients are not ranked. One measure never tells the whole story — how every figure is sourced and computed.
Questions to ask this center
Prompts for a conversation with the center or your kidney care team, generated only where CMS rates a measure "Worse than Expected", where this center is in the bottom quarter of Nevada facilities on a measure with at least 25 patients, or where it carries a Medicare payment reduction. They are not medical advice and not a verdict on the center.
- CMS's ESRD Quality Incentive Program reduced this center's Medicare payments by 0.5% for payment year 2026 (Total Performance Score 44, vs 49 for Nevada and 54 nationally). You could ask what the center is doing to improve its score.
- Emergency department visits (ratio): CMS reports 1.70 here, vs 0.99 nationally, and rates it "Worse than Expected" after risk adjustment. You could ask how the center handles problems between treatments and who patients should call after hours.
- Long-term catheter use: CMS reports 37% here (200 patients), vs 20% across Nevada — better than only 2% of Nevada facilities with at least 25 patients. You could ask how the center supports fistula or graft placement.
- Patients on the transplant waitlist: CMS reports 3.4% here, vs 16.5% nationally, and rates it "Worse than Expected" after risk adjustment. You could ask how the center helps patients get evaluated and listed for a kidney transplant.
- Waitlisted in first year (ratio): CMS reports 0.00 here, vs 1.00 nationally, and rates it "Worse than Expected" after risk adjustment. You could ask how soon after starting dialysis the center refers patients for a transplant evaluation.
- Switches to home dialysis (ratio): CMS reports 0.26 here, vs 1.00 nationally, and rates it "Worse than Expected" after risk adjustment. You could ask whether the center trains patients for home dialysis and how to find out if it suits you.
