Compare Providers

Two or three providers side by side, across the public record: licensing, ratings, inspections, penalties, staffing, ownership, and what care costs locally. Where no agency publishes a figure for a kind of provider, the cell says so rather than sitting empty next to a number and reading like a low score.

Collage Home and Community vs. Athens HS

Care types

What each provider is licensed or certified to deliver. Different care types answer to different regulators, which is why the rows below are not always comparable.

Collage Home and Community

Home Health Care

Athens HS

Home Health Care

Licensed capacity

Beds or units on the license. A capacity, not an occupancy.

Not a like-for-like comparison. We hold no licensed capacity for either of these providers, and cannot yet say whether that means there is nothing to report or a file we have not read. Nothing here should be read as a difference between them.

Collage Home and Community

Not established

The roster we read for this provider does not carry a licensed capacity. Not every state publishes one.

Athens HS

Not established

The roster we read for this provider does not carry a licensed capacity. Not every state publishes one.

License status

The status word the state registry uses, reproduced exactly. We do not translate or grade it.

Not a like-for-like comparison. We hold license status for some of these providers and not for others, and we cannot yet say whether the gap means a clean record or a file we have not read. Treat the difference between these columns as unknown, not as a finding.

Collage Home and Community

LICENSED FACILITY

Issued by Texas · License 019745

Athens HS

Not established

Texas's roster carries no status word for this license in the file we read. That is a gap in the file, not a lapsed license.

Published rating

Whatever the publishing regulator published, on the scale the regulator used. Nothing here is rescaled to five stars.

Not a like-for-like comparison. We hold published rating for some of these providers and not for others, and we cannot yet say whether the gap means a clean record or a file we have not read. Treat the difference between these columns as unknown, not as a finding.

Collage Home and Community

Not established

No published quality rating for this provider yet. Not every care type or state publishes a star rating. This is not necessarily a red flag.

Athens HS

None on record

CMS has published no quality of patient care star rating for this agency. CMS rates every Medicare-certified home health agency that reports enough completed patient episodes, and leaves the rest unrated rather than scoring them on thin data.

Inspection citations

How many citations are on record, and how recent the newest one is.

Not a like-for-like comparison. We hold inspection citations for some of these providers and not for others, and we cannot yet say whether the gap means a clean record or a file we have not read. Treat the difference between these columns as unknown, not as a finding.

Collage Home and Community

Not established

No inspection records are in our data yet. That can mean a clean record, or that this provider's inspection history has not been ingested. Verify directly with the state licensing agency above before assuming either.

Athens HS

None on record

No survey citations are on record for this agency. CMS publishes every statement of deficiency written against a Medicare-certified home health agency since 2018 through its QCOR system, and this agency is not among them.

Fines and payment denials

Enforcement actions on record, with the total fine amount where the source publishes one.

Not a like-for-like comparison. No public system publishes fines and payment denials for either of these providers, so there is nothing to compare here for either one.

Collage Home and Community

Not comparable

CMS publishes its civil money penalty and payment denial file for certified nursing homes only. No home health agency appears in it, including this one. Enforcement here runs through the state licensing agency instead.

Athens HS

Not comparable

CMS publishes its civil money penalty and payment denial file for certified nursing homes only. No home health agency appears in it, including this one. Enforcement here runs through the state licensing agency instead.

Nurse staffing hours

Payroll-based nurse hours per resident per day, against the median for the same state.

Not a like-for-like comparison. No public system publishes nurse staffing hours for either of these providers, so there is nothing to compare here for either one.

Collage Home and Community

Not comparable

Staffing hours are published for nursing homes and for no other kind of provider. Federal law requires Medicare- and Medicaid-certified nursing homes to file payroll-based nurse hours with CMS every quarter, and no agency collects the same return from home health agencies.

Athens HS

Not comparable

Staffing hours are published for nursing homes and for no other kind of provider. Federal law requires Medicare- and Medicaid-certified nursing homes to file payroll-based nurse hours with CMS every quarter, and no agency collects the same return from home health agencies.

Ownership and chain

Who owns the provider, and who runs it when those are different companies.

Not a like-for-like comparison. We hold no ownership and chain for either of these providers, and cannot yet say whether that means there is nothing to report or a file we have not read. Nothing here should be read as a difference between them.

Collage Home and Community

Not established

Ownership information not yet on file.

Athens HS

Not established

Ownership information not yet on file.

Typical local cost

The published monthly median for this care type in this provider's city. A market figure, never a price quoted by this provider.

Collage Home and Community

$5,414/mo

Typical for this care type in Spring, TX, not a price from this provider

Athens HS

$5,414/mo

Typical for this care type in Spring, TX, not a price from this provider

Reading the blanks

A blank cell on this page is never just missing. It is one of three claims, and they mean very different things.

None on record.
We hold the whole published file for this measure and this provider is not in it. A real zero, and a finding in its own right.
Not comparable.
No agency publishes this measure for this kind of provider, so no provider of its kind has one. Shown hatched, because it is not a score at all.
Not established.
We cannot yet say whether the silence means a clean record or a file we have not read. We would rather tell you that than guess.
