Rates for deaths, hospital admissions and transfusions are risk-adjusted per 100 patient-years; ratios compare the center to what CMS expects for its patients (1.00 = as expected). State figures are the average of centers in the state. 'CMS:' notes show CMS's own verdict after accounting for statistical uncertainty.
