Same-type reference in PA

Quality of patient care: this provider 4.5/5; median among 186 providers with a published value in the same state and provider category: 3.5/5.

CareRecords calculates this unweighted median from the loaded source snapshot. Providers with missing values are excluded. It is a descriptive reference, not a new quality rating or recommendation. Individual reporting periods may differ; do not compare different rating systems.

Questions to take to Lifespring in Home Care of Eastern Pa

  • Ask which services are actually available now, who will provide them, and how the provider handles concerns outside normal office hours. Published quality data cannot confirm current availability.
  • Ask how the published quality of patient care relates to the reporting period and what has changed since then. Ratings for different kinds of care should not be compared.
  • For ownership entries below, ask which entity is the direct owner and which supplies management. An officer or managing employee is not necessarily an equity owner.
  • Check the source date and the latest official record before deciding. Bring the issues above to a visit or call rather than treating the profile as a recommendation.

Filed ownership and management roles

Each row is a filed role, not a separate shareholding. The same person or organization may appear more than once. Do not add percentages across direct ownership, indirect ownership, officer and management roles. Management roles alone do not establish equity ownership.

CMS flags at least one owner here as: holding company. These are CMS's own classification checkboxes, reproduced as filed.
