🏥 SCI Rehab Centers in New York

37 inpatient rehabilitation facilities in New York report treating spinal cord injury. The filters below are pre-set to New York — change any of them to widen or narrow the search.

⚠️
Read this before you read the scores. These ratings come from CMS quality data that is facility-wide — no public measure breaks results out by spinal cord injury specifically — so a score reflects general rehab quality plus the complications most relevant to SCI (pressure injuries and catheter UTIs are weighted heavily). A facility marked "Not enough data to rate" is not a bad facility — it simply doesn't report the core measures. And three of the most renowned SCI hospitals in the country — Craig Hospital, Shepherd Center, and University of Michigan — are exempt from this CMS program, so they can't carry a CMS score; we pin curated profiles for them at the top of the results instead. Use this as one input, not a verdict. Not medical advice; not a CMS endorsement.

📊 Scores blend CMS quality measures — function, return to community, and safety — with SCI patient volume, plus bonuses for SCI Model Systems and CARF Spinal Cord accreditation. See the full methodology →

⭐ SCI Model Systems — the recognized national leaders

Federally designated (NIDILRR) centers of excellence for spinal cord injury care and research. Where one is in the CMS data, it carries a SCI Model System badge below — and you can browse the full directory of all 18 designated centers. Three of the most renowned — listed below — are exempt from the CMS program, so they can't carry a CMS score; we pin curated profiles for them at the top of the results so they're not invisible. Their absence from CMS data is not a quality signal:

  • Craig Hospital — Englewood, CO
  • Shepherd Center — Atlanta, GA
  • University of Michigan — Ann Arbor, MI
