About this facility
UofL Health, Frazier Rehabilitation Hospital-Brownsboro is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Louisville, Jefferson County, Kentucky. It has been Medicare-certified since August 3, 2023, and operates as a for-profit facility. Inpatient rehabilitation facilities provide intensive, hospital-level therapy — typically multiple hours of physical, occupational, and/or speech therapy per day — to help patients regain function after a stroke, major surgery, or serious injury, with the goal of returning home rather than remaining in long-term care.
According to CMS Care Compare data, this facility's rate of discharging patients back to the community is worse than the national rate. Its rate of unplanned readmissions after discharge from the facility is also worse than the national rate, though readmissions during the rehab stay itself are no different than the national rate. Its rate of C. diff healthcare-associated infections is no different than the national benchmark. Data on catheter-associated infections was not included here; when a measure is not reported, it is often because of low case counts at the facility, not necessarily a quality concern.
Overall, of the five measures CMS reports for this facility, none were rated better than the national benchmark, and two were rated worse. Patients and families considering rehabilitation here may wish to review the full current record on CMS Care Compare and discuss these results directly with the facility before making a decision.
