The 11th edition of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Nursing
Home Data Compendium contains figures and tables presenting data on all Medicareand

interesting data, while detailed data are available in accompanying tables. The data

home characteristics; Section 2 focuses on nursing home survey results; and Section 3
presents information on the demographic, functional and clinical characteristics of
nursing home residents.

more than 15,000 nursing homes participating in Medicaid and Medicare, and four
years of data on the more than 1.4 million residents who reside in nursing homes each
day.
