Hospital Compare Quality Information

Star ratings information gives patients a useful way to compare local hospitals by highlighting important quality factors like readmissions, mortality, safety of care, patient experience and timely and effective care. The ratings are presented as stars, ranging from 1 to 5. A higher number of stars indicates better performance in each quality aspect.

Overall Quality Rating Not Available - There are too few measures or measure groups reported to calculate a star rating or measure group score.

NPI Validation Check Digit Calculation

The following table explains the step by step NPI number validation process using the ISO standard Luhn algorithm.

Start with the original NPI number, the last digit is the check digit and is not used in the calculation.
1	4	5	7	3	9	2	9	0	4
Step 1: Double the value of the alternate digits, beginning with the rightmost digit.
2	4	10	7	6	9	4	9	0
Step 2: Add all the doubled and unaffected individual digits from step 1 plus the constant number 24.
2 + 4 + 1 + 0 + 7 + 6 + 9 + 4 + 9 + 0 + 24 = 66
Step 3: Subtract the total obtained in step 2 from the next higher number ending in zero, the result is the check digit.
70 - 66 = 4									4

The NPI number 1457392904 is valid because the calculated check digit 4 using the Luhn validation algorithm matches the last digit of the original NPI number.
