0255 - Hip: 3.7 TCR = 72% of Home Health Care BLS 5.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

0255 - Hip safety composite

0255 - Hip scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 58% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 22%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
