Vermont hospitals: racial-equity scorecards
14 Medicare-certified hospitals serve Vermont, represented by the Vermont Association of Hospitals and Health Systems. This page aggregates CMS Hospital Compare measures — overall star rating, mortality / safety / readmission / patient-experience measure-group performance — for each of those facilities.
The Green Mountain Care Board sets hospital budgets statewide under Vermont's all-payer model waiver with CMS. UVMMC in Burlington is the state's only academic medical center.
The state's recognized safety-net hospital systems — the facilities that carry a disproportionate share of Medicaid and uninsured admissions — include: University of Vermont Medical Center (Burlington). 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.
