About this facility

Rush Specialty Hospital, LLC is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois. It is a for-profit facility, certified by Medicare as of December 1, 2024.

An inpatient rehabilitation facility provides intensive, hospital-level therapy for people recovering from a stroke, major surgery, or serious injury, with the goal of regaining function and returning home. This differs from a skilled nursing facility, which typically offers a lower intensity of daily therapy.

CMS Care Compare tracks several plain-language quality measures for IRFs, including how often patients are discharged back to the community, rates of potentially preventable readmissions, and rates of healthcare-associated infections such as catheter-associated urinary tract infections and C. diff. For Rush Specialty Hospital, LLC, none of these five measures are currently reported by CMS as better than or worse than the national benchmark in the available data — CMS shows 0 measures better and 0 measures worse than the national rate. This pattern is common for newly certified facilities, which may not yet have enough patient cases for CMS to calculate and publish these statistics, and it does not indicate poor quality.

Families considering this facility for post-acute rehabilitation should contact the facility directly for details on services, admission criteria, and length of stay, and consult CMS Care Compare for the most current published measures, since data vintages update over time.
