State shares are calculated from the 30 Medicare-certified agencies in Wyoming; national shares from all 12,392 in this dataset. The CMS quality-of-patient-care star is published in half-star steps and is shown here without rounding. Agencies CMS does not rate are counted separately and never treated as zero.
CMS-reported data
Wyoming’s largest divergence from the national dataset is at 3.5★: 23.3% of the state’s agencies against 10.8% nationally (+12.5 points). This reflects what CMS publishes for these agencies and is not a judgement about care quality in either population.
What CMS reports here
For home health, how much CMS publishes about an agency is the first thing to understand — coverage varies widely.
Of the 30 agencies in Wyoming, CMS assigns a quality star to 22 and reports at least one quality measure for 26. 4 have neither — usually because the agency was too small or too new for CMS to report reliably. Each agency page states plainly which of the 17 CMS measure slots are filled for it.

Frequently asked questions
How many home health agencies are in Wyoming?
The current CMS Home Health Care dataset lists 30 Medicare-certified agencies across 19 cities in Wyoming, of which 22 carry a CMS quality-of-patient-care star rating.
Why do some Wyoming agencies have no star or limited data?
CMS only publishes results it can report reliably. An agency that served too few Medicare patients in the reporting window may have no star rating and few or no quality measures. In Wyoming, 4 of 30 agencies have neither a star nor a reported measure. A missing rating is a gap in the public record, not a negative result, and is never shown as a zero.
How does Wyoming compare with the national dataset?
22 of 30 Wyoming agencies carry a CMS star (73%), against 64% nationally across 12,392 agencies. The distribution above shows both on the same half-star scale. Differences reflect what CMS publishes and are not a judgement about care quality.
