CMS star ratings are based on three primary domains: health inspections, staffing, and quality measures. Providence Kodiak Island Med LTC received a 2-star rating in health inspections, indicating performance below the national average in that category.

The facility is certified to accept both Medicare and Medicaid as payment sources. Medicare typically covers short-term skilled nursing care following a qualifying hospital stay, subject to specific eligibility and duration requirements. Medicaid may cover longer-term custodial care for residents who meet financial and functional eligibility criteria. Individuals seeking information about coverage specifics are advised to consult directly with the facility or the relevant state and federal agencies. When considered in the context of national benchmarks, Providence Kodiak Island Med LTC presents a mixed profile. Its overall 2-star rating and 2-star health inspection rating are below the national average, while its 4-star quality measure rating is above average. The absence of a staffing rating limits full comparison across all CMS domains. The facility serves Kodiak Island County in a geographically remote area of Alaska, which may be a relevant factor for families and individuals evaluating care options in that region. With 22 certified beds, it is among the smaller nursing facilities in the country, which can influence staffing structures and the range of services offered.
