Statistical risk adjustment model with risk factors

PSI 90 is a composite of ten adverse event indicators that summarizes hospitals’ performance on patient safety for the CMS Medicare fee-for-service population. The timeframe used in the CMS Hospital Acquired Conditions Reduction Program (HACRP) and CareCompare public reporting are set within the Inpatient Prospective Payment Systems (IPPS) Final Rule annually.
