South Pointe Hospital in context

SOUTH POINTE HOSPITAL is an acute-care hospital in Warrensville Heights, Ohio, running as a non-profit hospital. The facility is Medicare-certified under CMS Certification Number 360144, which is the join key across Hospital Compare, MACRA, and most state discharge scorecards.

On measure groups versus the national rate, the facility is: 2 better of 4 mortality; 2 better of 6 safety; 1 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: SOUTH POINTE HOSPITAL 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: MetroHealth in Cleveland is the region's flagship public safety-net hospital. Cleveland Clinic, University Hospitals, and Ohio State Wexner anchor academic referral flow statewide.

For Black patients

If you are a Black patient being seen at SOUTH POINTE HOSPITAL in Warrensville Heights, Ohio, 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 Ohio 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/ohio/ 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.

Coverage + benefits in Ohio

Most U.S. hospitals accept Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance. Hospital financial counselors can enroll uninsured patients in Medicaid the same day under presumptive eligibility rules. Anyone enrolled in Medicaid is automatically income-eligible for WIC under federal adjunctive eligibility (7 CFR 246.7).
