About this facility
University Of Illinois Medical Center At Chicago is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois. It has been Medicare-certified since July 1, 1988, and is operated under government ownership.
An inpatient rehabilitation facility provides intensive, hospital-level therapy — typically multiple hours a day, several days a week — to help patients regain strength, mobility, and daily living skills after a stroke, major surgery, or serious injury. This differs from a nursing home, which generally offers a lower, less intensive level of ongoing care rather than short-term intensive rehabilitation aimed at returning home.
Based on the CMS data provided, specific plain-language comparisons for this facility — such as how often patients are discharged to the community, potentially-preventable readmission rates, and healthcare-associated infection rates (catheter-associated urinary tract infections and C. difficile) — are not available. CMS reports that this facility is better than the national benchmark on 0 of the 5 typically reported measures and worse than the national benchmark on 0 of the 5. This does not indicate poor quality; CMS often withholds a measure from public reporting when there are too few qualifying cases at a facility to calculate a reliable rate.
Families are encouraged to consult CMS Care Compare directly for the most current figures, as this profile reflects only the limited data supplied and does not include cost information or clinical recommendations.
