Largest nursing home companies in New York

There are 601 Medicare-certified nursing homes in New York. The ten largest operators control 56 of them — 9% of the state.

New York nursing home chains and corporations, explained

People search for New York nursing home companies in a dozen ways — largest nursing homes, top nursing home chains, nursing home corporations, biggest nursing home groups. They are all asking the same thing: who is actually behind the sign on the building. The answer is in CMS ownership filings, which are public, free, and almost unreadable in raw form.

How this is calculated

Every Medicare-certified nursing home files its owners with CMS. We take those filings, group entities whose facility portfolios overlap into a single corporate family, and count distinct facilities. Entities appearing only as lenders or mortgage holders are excluded — a bank holding paper on a building does not operate it. Full method on the methodology page.
