Welcome to the Michigan Health & Hospital Association (MHA) MI Hospital Inform Web site. This Web site is a joint effort by the MHA and its 146 nonprofit community hospitals to provide consumers with an opportunity to review charge, payment and quality information for hospitals in Michigan.

The MHA is leading by example, voluntarily providing this information to consumers. As a result of current data limitations, MI Hospital Inform initially contains only publicly available Medicare inpatient and outpatient charge and payment data and quality data from Hospital Compare, a website created through the efforts of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). The MHA is committed to achieving even greater transparency in health care; thus, MI Hospital Inform will continue to evolve to better address consumers’ questions and concerns.

The information presented on MI Hospital Inform should not be used as the sole source for choosing a hospital. Michigan’s health care delivery system and payments are very complex, resulting in varying charges and payments based on a patient’s unique situation. The MHA encourages consumers to talk with their physician, hospital and insurance company before making any health care decision.
