About this facility
Up Health System - Marquette is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Marquette, Michigan, operated under government ownership. Inpatient rehabilitation facilities provide intensive, hospital-level therapy — typically including physical, occupational, and speech therapy — 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 institutional care. This facility has been Medicare-certified since July 1, 1984.
According to CMS Care Compare, patients at this facility are discharged to the community, meaning they return home rather than to another care setting, at a rate that is 'no different than the national rate.' Potentially preventable readmission rates, both those measured following discharge and those occurring during the rehabilitation stay, are also reported as 'no different than the national rate.' The facility's Clostridioides difficile (C. diff) infection rate is reported as 'no different than the national benchmark.' A catheter-associated infection rate was not detailed in the available data, which may reflect that CMS has not published it, often due to low case counts, rather than any indication of quality concern.
Overall, based on the measures reported, CMS does not rate this facility as better than or worse than the national benchmark on any of the reported measures — it performs comparably to national averages across the board. This summary is based on data from CMS Care Compare; families are encouraged to review the source directly for the most current figures.
