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 California 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 California 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 46, vs 55 for California and 54 nationally). You could ask what the center is doing to improve its score.
Blood transfusion rate: CMS reports 65 transfusions per 100 patient-years here, vs 32.5 transfusions per 100 patient-years nationally, and rates it "Worse than Expected" after risk adjustment. You could ask how the center monitors and manages anemia.
High blood calcium: CMS reports 2% here (117 patients), vs 1% across California — better than only 16% of California facilities with at least 25 patients. You could ask how often the center checks calcium levels and how results are followed up.
