Answer 1

In the Hospital Value-Based Purchasing Program, a facility's Total Performance Score (TPS) is used to determine how well the facility is performing in relation to certain quality and patient satisfaction measures. A higher TPS indicates that the facility is performing better, so it is better to have a higher TPS in this context.
