SNF Benchmarking Tools
Every Medicare-certified nursing facility in the country, benchmarked and easy to read
Our benchmarking tools take the public data CMS publishes on skilled nursing facilities — cost reports, star ratings, staffing, inspections, ownership and Medicare rates — and put it into maps, trends and side-by-side comparisons you can read at a glance. See where a facility stands against its state, its county and its peers, and what the gaps are worth in dollars.
What you can do with them
Answers to the questions owners, operators and boards ask
Benchmark a facility
Compare cost per day, occupancy, margins, payer mix, staffing and quality with state, county, ownership and bed-size peers, then print a one-page report card.
Follow five-year trends
See how a measure has moved from FY2021 to FY2025 for a state, county or peer group, with the middle 50% shaded and your facilities overlaid.
Map your market
State and county heatmaps, every facility on a map with nearby competitors, Medicare Advantage penetration and the population aged 85 and over.
Understand reimbursement
Every state's Medicaid nursing facility payment approach — acuity system, rate basis and provider tax — plus FY 2027 Medicare PDPM rates by payment area.
See who owns and operates
Owners, operators and management companies from CMS enrollment records, chain affiliations, ownership changes and how concentrated each market is.
Size the opportunity
Turn gaps into dollars, run what-if scenarios on occupancy, payer mix and rates, and save any chart as a branded image for your next meeting.

Facility reports and credits
Need one facility, not a subscription?
The free edition includes a facility report: one facility's filed cost report and Care Compare figures, side by side with its state and the nation.
- Pick a facility when you sign up. Your first one is free.
- Change it once at no cost.
- After that, each new facility uses one facility credit. Switching back to a facility you've already chosen is always free.
Facility credit packs
Credits are good for one year from purchase. Need every facility in a state or county? A subscription covers them all.
Need a number you don't see?
Healthcare Reimbursement Partners works with these cost reports every day. Tell us the facility, market or question, and we'll pull the figures for you or walk you through what they mean for your reimbursement.
About the data. The tools use public data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services — skilled nursing facility cost reports (HCRIS), Care Compare, Payroll-Based Journal staffing, provider enrollment and ownership (PECOS), the SNF PPS final rule and Medicare Advantage enrollment — along with U.S. Census Bureau population estimates and state Medicaid documents. Figures are shown as filed, unusual values are flagged rather than changed, and the data is refreshed as CMS releases new files.
Benchmarks describe how facilities compare; they are not a forecast or an audit of any facility.
