Trace Regional earns Medicare honor

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services(CMS) recently recognized the top 20 Inpatient Psychiatric Facility Performers in quality measure reporting, as well as the most improved fiscal year 2016. Trace Regional Hospital’s Pathways Geriatric Psychiatric Unit was ranked 10th in the nation overall in Highest Performance.

The report includes measure data reported from January to December of 2014 from 1,559 inpatient psychiatric facilities reporting. Pathways also continues to provide free assessments to those who feel that themselves or their loved ones might be facing obstacles in their lives that might be difficult to manage on their own.

Trace Regional Hospital recently doubled its square footage of the Pathways Unit with a relocation to the second floor thus allowing for a more therapeutic environment and improving the proximity to the medical unit and ancillary services.
