Frequently asked questions
How many home health agencies are in Lima, Ohio?
The current CMS Home Health Care dataset lists 7 agencies in Lima, Ohio. Of these, 5 have a CMS quality-of-patient-care star rating.
What is the average CMS star rating for home health in Lima?
The average CMS quality-of-patient-care star rating across rated agencies in Lima is 2.4 of 5, compared with the Ohio average of 3.11. Averages exclude agencies CMS has not rated, and are calculated by this site rather than published by CMS.
Why do some Lima agencies have no star rating?
CMS only publishes a star when an agency has enough Medicare episodes in the reporting window to compute one reliably. An agency that is small or newly certified may have no star and few or no measures. That is a gap in the public record, not a negative result, and it is never shown as a zero.
How do I verify a home health agency in Lima?
