Hospital Readmission Analysis: Exploring Readmission Trends & Patient Reviews

Writer: Sable BodySable Body



This project analyzes hospital readmission rates using data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program, integrating it with Google Reviews to explore potential relationships between patient experiences and hospital performance.


Key areas of focus include:

✅ State-by-State Readmission Trends – Identifying variations in hospital performance across different regions.

✅ Hospital Review Insights – Examining Google Reviews to assess patient satisfaction and hospital ratings.

✅ Readmission vs. Patient Ratings – Exploring whether higher-rated hospitals tend to have lower readmission rates.

✅ Data Cleaning & Integration – Using SQL for data transformation and Python for web scraping hospital reviews.


This project highlights data-driven insights into healthcare quality and demonstrates practical applications of SQL, Python, and Tableau in analyzing real-world datasets.
