Florida nursing homes with the CMS High Performing Facility icon: the current list

110 of Florida’s 694 Medicare-certified nursing homes carry the CMS High Performing Facility icon on Nursing Home Care Compare as of CMS’s October 2026 list. That’s 15.9% of the state, above the national share of 11.6%.

Here’s the full list by county, what the icon records, and what to do if you run one of these buildings or compete with one.

What the icon means

CMS places a trophy on a facility’s Care Compare profile when it qualifies for the Risk-Based Survey, a shorter inspection reserved for buildings with a clean record. Qualifying takes 11 checks at once: a 5-star overall rating, at least 3 stars for staffing, no harm-level citations in the last cycle, an inspection within 18 months, clean staffing and assessment data audits, no staffing waivers, no recent change of ownership, and more.

The list rebuilds every quarter, and the icon stays “until the facility is no longer eligible.” The full explainer covers what that means in practice.

Where they cluster

The largest groups sit in Miami-Dade (19), Palm Beach (9), Broward (6). 40 of Florida’s counties have at least one qualifying building.

If your building is on the list

You have roughly a quarter before the next rebuild to turn the icon into inquiries, tours, and referral conversations. The 7-surface rollout covers the website, Google Business Profile, per-facility social, the lobby, admissions, hospital partners, and current families, with one dated sentence that stays accurate everywhere. The hospital referral piece is the surface with the highest return.

Write the removal plan before the first post. The icon is a status, and statuses end.

MOZART&CO. runs this as a coordinated recognition campaign for every qualifying building in a network, in one week, tracked in the Marketing Hub so the next quarter triggers an update instead of a scramble. We work with operators across Florida.

If it isn’t

About 88.4% of nursing homes nationally are in the same position, and many of them are strong buildings that missed on a technicality: the survey clock, an acquisition, a staffing star. Find out which of the 11 checks you missed. Three of them respond to work you control this quarter.

About this list

Source: the High Performing Icon column of the CMS Provider Information dataset (NH_ProviderInfo_Sep2026_3.csv) on the Provider Data Catalog, retrieved 2026-10-19. Facility names, cities, counties, and bed counts from the CMS Provider Information dataset as of 2026-10-19. CMS notes that the lists sent to state survey agencies and the icons shown on Care Compare will not always match because of data transmission and posting delays; for any single facility, the Care Compare profile is the reference. This page updates when CMS rebuilds the list.
