After May 3, 2024, this dataset and webpage will no longer be updated because hospitals are no longer required to report data on COVID-19 hospital admissions, and hospital capacity and occupancy data, to HHS through CDC’s National Healthcare Safety Network. Data voluntarily reported to NHSN after May 1, 2024, will be available starting May 10, 2024, at COVID Data Tracker Hospitalizations.

The following dataset provides facility-level data for hospital utilization aggregated on a weekly basis (Sunday to Saturday). These are derived from reports with facility-level granularity across two main sources: (1) HHS TeleTracking, and (2) reporting provided directly to HHS Protect by state/territorial health departments on behalf of their healthcare facilities.

The hospital population includes all hospitals registered with Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) as of June 1, 2020. It includes non-CMS hospitals that have reported since July 15, 2020. It does not include psychiatric, rehabilitation, Indian Health Service (IHS) facilities, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) facilities, Defense Health Agency (DHA) facilities, and religious non-medical facilities.

For a given entry, the term “collection_week” signifies the start of the period that is aggregated. For example, a “collection_week” of 2020-11-15 means the average/sum/coverage of the elements captured from that given facility starting and including Sunday, November 15, 2020, and ending and including reports for Saturday, November 21, 2020.

Reported elements include an append of either “_coverage”, “_sum”, or “_avg”.

• A “_coverage” append denotes how many times the facility reported that element during that collection week.
• A “_sum” append denotes the sum of the reports provided for that facility for that element during that collection week.
• A “_avg” append is the average of the reports provided for that facility for that element during that collection week.

The file will be updated weekly. No statistical analysis is applied to impute non-response. For averages, calculations are based on the number of values collected for a given hospital in that collection week. Suppression is applied to the file for sums and averages less than four (4). In these cases, the field will be replaced with “-999,999”.

A story page was created to display both corrected and raw datasets and can be accessed at this link: https://healthdata.gov/stories/s/nhgk-5gpv

This data is preliminary and subject to change as more data become available. Data is available starting on July 31, 2020.

Sometimes, reports for a given facility will be provided to both HHS TeleTracking and HHS Protect. When this occurs, to ensure that there are not duplicate reports, deduplication is applied according to prioritization rules within HHS Protect.

For influenza fields listed in the file, the current HHS guidance marks these fields as optional. As a result, coverage of these elements are varied.

Due to changes in reporting requirements, after June 19, 2023, a collection week is defined as starting on a Sunday and ending on the next Saturday.

In 2023, there were over **** million hospital admissions in the United States. The number of hospitals in the U.S. has decreased in recent years, although the country faces an increasing elder population. Predictably, the elderly account for the largest share of hospital admissions in the U.S. Hospital stays Stays in hospitals are more common among females than males, with around *** percent of females reporting one or more hospital stays in the past year, compared to *** percent of males. Furthermore, **** percent of those aged 65 years and older had a hospitalization in the past year, compared to just *** percent of those aged 18 to 44 years. The average length of a stay in a U.S. hospital is *** days. Hospital beds In 2022, there were ******* hospital beds in the U.S. In the past few years, there has been a decrease in the number of hospital beds available. This is unsurprising given the decrease in the number of overall hospitals. In 2021, the occupancy rate of hospitals in the U.S. was ** percent.

As of September 26, the hospitalization rate in the United States due to COVID-19 was highest for those aged 85 years and older. This statistic shows the cumulative rate of laboratory-confirmed COVID-19-associated hospitalizations in the U.S. as of September 26, 2020, by age group.

This dataset is not being updated as hospitals are no longer mandated to report COVID Hospitalizations to CDPH.

Data is from the California COVID-19 State Dashboard at https://covid19.ca.gov/state-dashboard/

Note: Hospitalization counts include all patients diagnosed with COVID-19 during their stay. This does not necessarily mean they were hospitalized because of COVID-19 complications or that they experienced COVID-19 symptoms.

Note: Cumulative totals are not available due to the fact that hospitals report the total number of patients each day (as opposed to new patients).

Note: After May 3, 2024, this dataset will no longer be updated because hospitals are no longer required to report data on COVID-19 hospital admissions, hospital capacity, or occupancy data to HHS through CDC’s National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN). The related CDC COVID Data Tracker site was revised or retired on May 10, 2023.

This dataset represents weekly COVID-19 hospitalization data and metrics aggregated to national, state/territory, and regional levels. COVID-19 hospitalization data are reported to CDC’s National Healthcare Safety Network, which monitors national and local trends in healthcare system stress, capacity, and community disease levels for approximately 6,000 hospitals in the United States. Data reported by hospitals to NHSN and included in this dataset represent aggregated counts and include metrics capturing information specific to COVID-19 hospital admissions, and inpatient and ICU bed capacity occupancy.

Reporting information:

• As of December 15, 2022, COVID-19 hospital data are required to be reported to NHSN, which monitors national and local trends in healthcare system stress, capacity, and community disease levels for approximately 6,000 hospitals in the United States. Data reported by hospitals to NHSN represent aggregated counts and include metrics capturing information specific to hospital capacity, occupancy, hospitalizations, and admissions. Prior to December 15, 2022, hospitals reported data directly to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) or via a state submission for collection in the HHS Unified Hospital Data Surveillance System (UHDSS).
• While CDC reviews these data for errors and corrects those found, some reporting errors might still exist within the data. To minimize errors and inconsistencies in data reported, CDC removes outliers before calculating the metrics. CDC and partners work with reporters to correct these errors and update the data in subsequent weeks.
• Many hospital subtypes, including acute care and critical access hospitals, as well as Veterans Administration, Defense Health Agency, and Indian Health Service hospitals, are included in the metric calculations provided in this report. Psychiatric, rehabilitation, and religious non-medical hospital types are excluded from calculations.
• Data are aggregated and displayed for hospitals with the same Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Certification Number (CCN), which are assigned by CMS to counties based on the CMS Provider of Services files.
• Full details on COVID-19 hospital data reporting guidance can be found here: https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/covid-19-faqs-hospitals-hospital-laboratory-acute-care-facility-data-reporting.pdf

Metric details:

• Time Period: timeseries data will update weekly on Mondays as soon as they are reviewed and verified, usually before 8 pm ET. Updates will occur the following day when reporting coincides with a federal holiday. Note: Weekly updates might be delayed due to delays in reporting. All data are provisional. Because these provisional counts are subject to change, including updates to data reported previously, adjustments can occur. Data may be updated since original publication due to delays in reporting (to account for data received after a given Thursday publication) or data quality corrections.
• New COVID-19 Hospital Admissions (count): Number of new admissions of patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 in the previous week (including both adult and pediatric admissions) in the entire jurisdiction.
• New COVID-19 Hospital Admissions (7-Day Average): 7-day average of new admissions of patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 in the previous week (including both adult and pediatric admissions) in the entire jurisdiction.
• Cumulative COVID-19 Hospital Admissions: Cumulative total number of admissions of patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 (including both adult and pediatric admissions) in the entire jurisdiction since August 1, 2020.
• Cumulative COVID-19 Hospital Admissions Rate: Cumulative total number of admissions of patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 (including both adult and pediatric admissions) in the entire jurisdiction since August 1, 2020 divided by 2019 intercensal population estimate for that jurisdiction multiplied by 100,000.
• New COVID-19 Hospital Admissions Rate (7-day average) percent change from prior week: Percent change in the 7-day average new admissions of patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 per 100,000 population compared with the prior week.
• New COVID-19 Hospital Admissions (7-Day Total): 7-day total number of new admissions of patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 (including both adult and pediatric admissions) in the entire jurisdiction.
• New COVID-19 Hospital Admissions Rate (7-Day Total): 7-day total number of new admissions of patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 (including both adult and pediatric admissions) for the entire jurisdiction divided by 2019 intercensal population estimate for that jurisdiction multiplied by 100,000.
• Total Hospitalized COVID-19 Patients: 7-day total number of patients currently hospitalized with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 (including both adult and pediatric patients) for the entire jurisdiction.
• Total Hospitalized COVID-19 Patients (7-Day Average): 7-day average of the number of patients currently hospitalized with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 (including both adult and pediatric patients) for the entire jurisdiction.
• COVID-19 Inpatient Bed Occupancy (7-Day Average): Percentage of all staffed inpatient beds occupied by patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 (including both adult and pediatric patients) within the entire jurisdiction is calculated as an average of valid daily values within the past 7 days (e.g., if only three valid values, the average of those three is taken). Averages are separately calculated for the daily numerators (patients hospitalized with confirmed COVID-19) and denominators (staffed inpatient beds). The average percentage can then be taken as the ratio of these two values for the entire jurisdiction.
• COVID-19 Inpatient Bed Occupancy absolute change from prior week: The absolute change in the percent of staffed inpatient beds occupied by patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 represents the week-over-week absolute difference between the 7-day average occupancy of patients with confirmed COVID-19 in staffed inpatient beds in the past 7 days, compared with the prior week, in the entire jurisdiction.
• COVID-19 ICU Bed Occupancy (7-Day Average): Percentage of all staffed inpatient beds occupied by adult patients with confirmed COVID-19 within the entire jurisdiction is calculated as a 7-day average of valid daily values within the past 7 days (e.g., if only three valid values, the average of those three is taken). Averages are separately calculated for the daily numerators (adult patients hospitalized with confirmed COVID-19) and denominators (staffed adult ICU beds). The average percentage can then be taken as the ratio of these two values for the entire jurisdiction.
• COVID-19 ICU Bed Occupancy absolute change from prior week: The absolute change in the percent of staffed ICU beds occupied by patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 represents the week-over-week absolute difference between the average occupancy of patients with confirmed COVID-19 in staffed adult ICU beds for the past 7 days, compared with the prior week, in the in the entire jurisdiction.

Note: October 27, 2023: Due to a data processing error, reported values for avg_percent_inpatient_beds_occupied_covid_confirmed will appear lower than previously reported values by an average difference of less than 1%. Therefore, previously reported values for avg_percent_inpatient_beds_occupied_covid_confirmed may have been overestimated and should be interpreted with caution.

October 27, 2023: Due to a data processing error, reported values for abs_chg_avg_percent_inpatient_beds_occupied_covid_confirmed will differ from previously reported values by an average absolute difference of less than 1%. Therefore, previously reported values for abs_chg_avg_percent_inpatient_beds_occupied_covid_confirmed should be interpreted with caution.

December 29, 2023: Hospitalization data reported to CDC’s National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) through December 23, 2023, should be interpreted with caution due to potential reporting delays that are impacted by Christmas and New Years holidays. As a result, metrics including new hospital admissions for COVID-19 and influenza and hospital occupancy may be underestimated for the week ending December 23, 2023.

January 5, 2024: Hospitalization data reported to CDC’s National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) through December 30, 2023 should be interpreted with caution due to potential reporting delays that are impacted by Christmas and New Years holidays. As a result, metrics including new hospital admissions for COVID-19 and influenza and hospital occupancy may be underestimated for the week ending December 30, 2023.

Note: May 3,2024: Due to incomplete or missing hospital data received for the April 21,2024 through April 27, 2024 reporting period, the COVID-19 Hospital Admissions Level could not be calculated for CNMI and will be reported as “NA” or “Not Available” in the COVID-19 Hospital Admissions Level data released on May 3, 2024.

This dataset represents COVID-19 hospitalization data and metrics aggregated to county or county-equivalent, for all counties or county-equivalents (including territories) in the United States. COVID-19 hospitalization data are reported to CDC’s National Healthcare Safety Network, which monitors national and local trends in healthcare system stress, capacity, and community disease levels for approximately 6,000 hospitals in the United States.

• County-level hospital data are derived using calculations performed at the Health Service Area (HSA) level. An HSA is defined by CDC’s National Center for Health Statistics as a geographic area containing at least one county which is self-contained with respect to the population’s provision of routine hospital care. Every county in the United States is assigned to an HSA, and each HSA must contain at least one hospital. Therefore, use of HSAs in the calculation of local hospital metrics allows for more accurate characterization of the relationship between health care utilization and health status at the local level.
• Data presented at the county-level represent admissions, hospital inpatient and ICU bed capacity and occupancy among hospitals within the selected HSA. Therefore, admissions, capacity, and occupancy are not limited to residents of the selected HSA.
• For all county-level hospital metrics listed below the values are calculated first for the entire HSA, and then the HSA-level value is then applied to each county within the HSA.
• For all county-level hospital metrics listed below the values are calculated first for the entire HSA, and then the HSA-level value is then applied to each county within the HSA.

From the Web site: The American Hospital Directory® provides data, statistics, and analytics about more than 7,000 hospitals nationwide. AHD.com® hospital information includes both public and private sources such as Medicare claims data, hospital cost reports, and commercial licensors. AHD® is not affiliated with the American Hospital Association (AHA) and is not a source for AHA Data. Our data are evidence-based and derived from the most definitive sources.

As of June 10, 2023, the cumulative hospitalization rate in the United States due to COVID-19 was lowest for Non-Hispanic Asian or Pacific Islanders and highest among Non-Hispanic American Indian or Alaska Natives. This statistic shows the cumulative rate of laboratory-confirmed COVID-19-associated hospitalizations in the U.S. as of June 10, 2023, by race and ethnicity.

In the fiscal year no to no, the hospitalization rate in Canada stood at ***** hospitalizations per 100,000 population. Since no, the rate at which people were hospitalized in Canada has gradually decreased. Hospitalization rates saw a sharp drop in the beginning of the COVID pandemic and stabilized somewhat.

Since 2005, the Diagnosis Related Groups (DRG) statistics have provided annual information on morbidity events and morbidity trends in inpatient care, as well as on the volume and structure of demand for services, over and above the existing official hospital statistics. In particular, type of illness, case-flat-rate hospital statistic (DRGs), operations and procedures as well as length of stay and department are collected.

The aggregated data are freely accessible.

The CMS Program Statistics - Medicare Inpatient Hospital tables provide use and payment data for all inpatient hospitals, including short-stay hospitals, critical access hospitals, long term care hospitals, inpatient psychiatric facilities, inpatient rehabilitation facilities, religious nonmedical health care institutions, children’s hospitals, and other hospitals.

For additional information on enrollment, providers, and Medicare use and payment, visit the CMS Program Statistics page.

The following dataset provides state-aggregated data for hospital utilization in a timeseries format dating back to January 1, 2020. These are derived from reports with facility-level granularity across three main sources: (1) HHS TeleTracking, (2) reporting provided directly to HHS Protect by state/territorial health departments on behalf of their healthcare facilities and (3) National Healthcare Safety Network (before July 15).

The file will be updated regularly and provides the latest values reported by each facility within the last four days for all time. This allows for a more comprehensive picture of the hospital utilization within a state by ensuring a hospital is represented, even if they miss a single day of reporting.

No statistical analysis is applied to account for non-response and/or to account for missing data.

The below table displays one value for each field (i.e., column). Sometimes, reports for a given facility will be provided to more than one reporting source: HHS TeleTracking, NHSN, and HHS Protect. When this occurs, to ensure that there are not duplicate reports, prioritization is applied to the numbers for each facility.
