The read

A home health agency in San Diego, CA. It ran an operating surplus of 12.7% in FY25 on $7.3M of operating revenue. It held 9 days of cash on hand (32nd percentile of 5,303 home health agencies on liquidity, FY25 pool). 6 reporting years are on file, but revenue scale shifts too much between them for a comparable trend, so trend context is limited. On care, it carries a 4.5-star CMS quality rating and 2-star patient experience. Its within-stay preventable hospitalization rate is 8.5%. On the filed record it is comfortably profitable with strong measured quality. Source-reported context, not a recommendation.

The money

$ thousands · HCRIS cost-report basis · as filed, QA-gated

Ratios tell you how this home health agency is doing. Statements tell you what kind of organization it is, and where the money comes from. Every figure below traces to a public cost-report filing, shown as filed. A ratio computes only when every input is reported in the filing (otherwise its cell states which input is Not reported in source); a year whose balance sheet does not reconcile is labeled, and its derived ratios read Astrelis calculation unavailable.
