Henderson Hospital in context

HENDERSON HOSPITAL is an acute-care hospital in Henderson, Nevada, running as a for-profit hospital. The facility is Medicare-certified under CMS Certification Number 290057, which is the join key across Hospital Compare, MACRA, and most state discharge scorecards.

CMS Hospital Compare assigns this facility an overall rating of 2 of 5 stars — below the national median. On measure groups versus the national rate, the facility is: 6 mortality measures reported with none flagged; 3 better of 7 safety; 2 worse of 8 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: HENDERSON HOSPITAL operates an emergency department (EMTALA-covered, which means it must screen and stabilize any patient regardless of ability to pay), and the CMS Birthing-Friendly designation, which requires attesting to the Alliance for Innovation on Maternal Health (AIM) obstetric safety bundles.

Statewide context: University Medical Center of Southern Nevada (UMC) is Las Vegas's only public safety-net hospital and the sole Level I trauma center in Southern Nevada.

For Black patients

If you are a Black patient being seen at HENDERSON HOSPITAL in Henderson, Nevada, 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 Nevada 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/nevada/ 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.
