Importance: Despite widespread use to guide patients to hospitals providing the best care, it remains unknown whether Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) hospital star ratings are a reliable measure of hospital surgical quality.
Objective: To examine the CMS hospital star ratings and hospital surgical quality measured by 30-day postoperative mortality, serious complications, and readmission rates for Medicare beneficiaries undergoing colectomy, coronary artery bypass graft, cholecystectomy, appendectomy, and incisional hernia repair.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This cohort study evaluated 100% Medicare administrative claims for nonfederal acute care hospitals with a CMS hospital star rating for calendar years 2014-2018.

In this perspective we discuss the progress made in the mechanistic studies of the surface chemistry associated with the atomic layer deposition (ALD) of metal films and the usefulness of that knowledge for the optimization of existing film growth processes and for the design of new ones. Our focus is on the deposition of late transition metals. We start by introducing some of the main surface-sensitive techniques and approaches used in this research.
