Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) assigns star ratings to skilled nursing and specialty care facilities across multiple dimensions. Montgomery Children's Specialty Center holds an overall CMS star rating of 3 out of 5, which aligns with the national average of 3.0 stars. Its health inspection rating stands at 2 out of 5 stars, indicating performance below the national average on inspection-related measures. The staffing rating is also 2 out of 5 stars, reflecting staffing levels and consistency that fall below national norms. The facility's quality measure rating is 5 out of 5 stars, the highest possible score, indicating strong performance on clinical quality indicators tracked by CMS across resident care outcomes.
As a Medicaid-certified facility, Montgomery Children's Specialty Center accepts Medicaid as a payment source. Individuals seeking placement should contact the facility directly or consult with a Medicaid eligibility specialist to confirm current coverage options, availability, and any applicable program requirements. Medicare coverage eligibility and private pay arrangements should also be verified directly with facility administration, as coverage terms may change over time.
When viewed in the context of national benchmarks, Montgomery Children's Specialty Center presents a mixed profile. The overall 3-star rating places it at the national average. However, the 2-star ratings in both health inspections and staffing indicate areas where the facility performs below typical national standards. In contrast, the 5-star quality measure rating represents the highest tier of performance in that category, distinguishing the facility from many others across the country. This combination of ratings suggests variability across different dimensions of care and operations. Families and referring providers reviewing this facility should consider each rating category independently, as aggregate scores may not fully reflect performance in specific areas of concern. All CMS ratings are updated periodically and reflect data collected during the most recent review cycles available at the time of publication.

About CMS Star Ratings
CMS assigns 1–5 star ratings to Medicare and Medicaid-certified nursing homes based on three domains: health inspections, staffing levels, and quality measures. The overall rating is a weighted composite.
A 5-star overall rating does not guarantee excellence in every domain — inspect each sub-rating independently. Data is updated quarterly.
