# Atlas Commons research objects — the national distribution of "Patients who got better at getting in and out of bed"

The national distribution of "Patients who got better at getting in and out of bed" across 7,986 U.S. home-health agencies, with each figure's status labeled: each per-agency rate is a CMS-measured OASIS outcome; the cross-agency distribution statistics (median 88.47%, p10 59.95% to p90 96.78%) are an in-house aggregation over the public panel, which CMS does not publish; the boundary is context — the national picture, not a per-agency verdict or a personal prediction.

## Claims

### "Patients who got better at getting in and out of bed" is a CMS-measured home-health outcome, reported by 7,986 agencies

**RECORDED.** Patients who got better at getting in and out of bed is a measured outcome rate (from OASIS patient assessments at admission and discharge) that 7,986 U.S. home-health agencies report to CMS. It captures how often patients actually transfer safely — an outcome (a change in the patient), not an input or a rating.

Source: CMS Home Health Care Compare — https://www.medicare.gov/care-compare/
Falsifier: A RECORD of measured/reported events (occurred=true) from CMS Home Health Care Compare; superseded when CMS Home Health Care Compare publishes its next release.

### Nationally, the median agency's "Patients who got better at getting in and out of bed" rate is 88.47% (middle half 78.46–92.87%, p10 59.95% to p90 96.78%)

**DERIVED.** Across the 7,986 reporting agencies: median 88.47%, mean 83.08%, range from p10 59.95% to p90 96.78%. The per-agency rates are CMS-RECORDED; these DISTRIBUTION statistics are an in-house aggregation over the public panel — CMS does not publish the cross-agency distribution. They show where any given agency falls on the national curve.

Falsifier: occurred=FALSE (a calculation, not an event) and adjudged=FALSE (a transparent in-house formula, not an authority's verdict — no external adjudicator). Reproduce it from its named inputs; falsified if the formula or inputs are wrong. Lower warrant than the adjudged figures above.

### What this distribution is — and is NOT (the epistemic boundary)

**INTERPRETATION.** This is the NATIONAL picture of one outcome across all agencies — useful for seeing where a provider falls on the curve, and for understanding what "good" looks like. It is NOT a rating of any single agency (see that agency's page), NOT a prediction of how YOU or your relative will do (your clinician knows your case), and NOT a substitute for CMS Care Compare. The spread is real: choosing well moves a patient across a wide distribution of measured recovery.

Falsifier: occurred=FALSE (a framing, not an event) and adjudged=FALSE (the atlas's reading, not a CMS verdict) — the LOWEST-warrant claim here. The measure (recorded) and the distribution stats (derived) above are grounded; this is the only interpretation, and the four-status says so.

Every claim above carries a four-status warrant (RECORDED / MODELED / DERIVED / INTERPRETATION) and a named source you can re-fetch — this is a research object, not a flat fact. Structured: `https://care-atlas.ryanjhunter.workers.dev/care/outcomes/bed-mobility.jsonld`
