Performance Corridor. The Performance Corridor is the upper control limit on the amount by which the Hospital’s readmission rate exceeds the expected rate. The width of this corridor is related to the Hospital’s annual number eligible cases. The width is three times the standard deviation of the Hospital’s expected readmission rate divided by the square root of the Hospital’s number of eligible cases. Hospital-specific corridors are available on the Web Enabled Reporting System (WERS).
