Understanding dialysis centers
Dialysis centers provide life-sustaining treatment for people whose kidneys can no longer filter waste from the blood. Most patients receive in-center hemodialysis several times a week, while some facilities also train and support patients who dialyze at home. CMS publishes each facility’s treatment options, quality measures, and patient survey results so families can compare locations on more than convenience.

Dialysis centers frequently asked questions
What dialysis services can I compare?
CMS lists whether facilities offer in-center hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, home hemodialysis training, and late shifts. Confirm current availability directly with the facility.
How are dialysis quality and patient experience ratings different?
CMS clinical quality stars summarize selected quality measures. ICH CAHPS patient survey stars describe reported patient experiences. They measure different things and are shown separately.
Does a missing rating mean poor care?
No. CMS may not publish a result when there is insufficient data or another reporting limitation. A missing result is shown as unavailable, never as zero stars.
Does the number of dialysis stations tell me whether an appointment is available?
No. Station counts describe the facility’s listed equipment capacity. Confirm available shifts, admissions, and scheduling with the provider.
Why do results show different reporting periods?
A CMS release can combine measures collected over different time spans. The reporting period shown beside each result is the span it covers, so compare facilities on the same measure and the same period.
