Medicare Post-Acute Care and Hospice - by Geography & Provider

The Medicare Post-Acute Care and Hospice Provider Utilization and Payment Public Use Files (PAC PUF) contains information on demographic and clinical characteristics of beneficiaries served, professional and paraprofessional service utilization, and payment information at the provider, state, and national levels for each PAC setting (i.e. HHA, hospices, SNF, IRF, and LTCH). There are additional datasets which can be found as a downloadable report under ‘Resources', which include information specific to the unique variables (e.g., case-mix groups) for HHAs, SNFs and IRFs.

Please note the data included may not be representative of a physician’s entire practice. The data are also not intended to indicate the quality of care provided and are not risk-adjusted to account for differences in underlying severity of disease of patient populations. 

More information can be found below in the resources section.
