City Of Hope Cancer Center Phoenix in context

On measure groups versus the national rate, the facility is: 3 safety measures reported with none flagged; 1 better of 5 readmission. CMS's composite rating weights mortality, safety, readmission, patient experience, and timely & effective care across all reporting measures; it is not stratified by patient race.
Operationally: CITY OF HOPE CANCER CENTER PHOENIX does not report an emergency department or the CMS Birthing-Friendly maternal-safety designation in this release of Hospital Compare. Emergency admissions are routed to the nearest EMTALA-covered facility; maternal cases likely refer to the closest birthing-friendly hospital.
Statewide context: Arizona operates one of the nation's only all-managed-care state Medicaid systems through AHCCCS — every Medicaid enrollee is assigned to a plan and hospital reimbursement flows through the plan contract rather than fee-for-service.
For Black patients
If you are a Black patient being seen at CITY OF HOPE CANCER CENTER PHOENIX in Goodyear, Arizona, a few concrete steps:
- Bring an advocate. National data from CDC's Black maternal mortality review show the single biggest reduction in missed-diagnosis rates comes from a second set of ears in the room — a partner, a doula, a family member. Ask in advance that they be credentialed as a visitor; the hospital cannot turn away a designated support person.
- If you need ongoing primary care, our Arizona provider directory filters to physicians who accept Medicaid and speak Spanish / Haitian Creole / ASL where relevant. Filter to your insurance first.
- If the hospital doesn't take your coverage, the closest Federally Qualified Health Center is listed under our FQHCs in this area. FQHCs serve every patient on a sliding-fee scale regardless of insurance status.
- For help paying for care, the state Medicaid navigator at /medicaid/arizona/ explains eligibility, documents, and how to apply (same-day presumptive eligibility for pregnancy).
- If you are treated dismissively or your pain is ignored, every Medicare-certified hospital is required by CMS Conditions of Participation (42 CFR 482.13) to have a grievance procedure; file in writing and request the CMS regional office contact if the hospital ombuds does not respond within seven days.
