Note. The numbers in the table are the sum of the coefficients on the interaction Rating × Post and the main Post effect, which represent the difference in the number of hospitalizations per 30 days after the implementation of 5-star report card compared with before, accounting for patient and nursing home factors. FE = fixed effects.
