Maryland hospitals: racial-equity scorecards

45 Medicare-certified Black MMR 54.70/100k State scorecard available

45 Medicare-certified hospitals serve Maryland, represented by the Maryland Hospital Association. This page aggregates CMS Hospital Compare measures — overall star rating, mortality / safety / readmission / patient-experience measure-group performance — for each of those facilities.

Maryland operates the country's only all-payer hospital rate-setting system under HSCRC; every hospital publishes identical pricing to every payer. The Maryland Health Care Commission's public scorecard aggregates race-stratified readmission, mortality, and patient-experience scores.

The state's recognized safety-net hospital systems — the facilities that carry a disproportionate share of Medicaid and uninsured admissions — include: Johns Hopkins Hospital (Baltimore), University of Maryland Medical Center, and MedStar Washington Hospital Center. Each has its own detail page below.

Two editorial notes on scope. First, CMS does not publish a racial-disparity scorecard per-hospital at national scale; what we surface below is the facility's overall CMS rating paired with any race-stratified metric we could find in a primary source (AHRQ Disparities Atlas, a state discharge scorecard, or a published study). Second, we do not rank hospitals as 'worst for Black patients' without a primary-source citation — the legal standard for that claim requires it.
