Evaluate the data contained in your graphic. What types of insights or conclusions can be drawn from this information about your hospital, your benchmark facility, the county, and the state for each year? Was your assigned benchmark facility a good benchmark? If not, which facility in the assigned county would be better?
Prepare a short report that evaluates the possible explanations as to why your facilitys overall CMI was higher or lower than the benchmark facility, the county, and the state average for each year.
