PONDERA MEDICAL CENTER — financial and operating metrics

CCN 271324, CONRAD, MT · Medicare cost reports, FY2019–FY2024

Short reporting period. FY2021 (150 days), FY2023 (274 days) covers less than a full year, usually because the hospital changed its fiscal year end, opened, closed or changed hands. Its totals are not comparable with the full years beside them, and no figure here has been scaled up to disguise that.

Unverified figures. Metrics marked unverified are derived from cost-report coordinates that have not yet been reconciled against audited financial statements. We show you which, rather than hiding it.
