[IMPORTANT NOTE: Sample file posted on Datarade is not the complete dataset, as Datarade permits only a single CSV file. Visit https://www.careprecise.com/healthcare-provider-data-sample.htm for more complete samples.] Updated every month, CarePrecise developed the AHD to provide a comprehensive database of U.S. hospital information. Extracted from the CarePrecise master provider database with information all of the 6.3 million HIPAA-covered US healthcare providers and additional sources, the Authoritative Hospital Database (AHD) contains records for all HIPAA-covered hospitals. In this database of hospitals we include bed counts, patient satisfaction data, hospital system ownership, hospital charges and cases by Zip Code®, and more. Most records include a cabinet-level or director-level contact. A PlaceKey is provided where available.

The AHD includes bed counts for 95% of hospitals, full contact information on 85%, and fax numbers for 62%. We include detailed patient satisfaction data, employee counts, and medical procedure volumes.

The AHD integrates directly with our extended provider data product to bring you the physicians and practice groups affiliated with the hospitals. This combination of data is the only commercially available hospital dataset of this depth.

NEW: Hospital NPI to CCN Rollup A CarePrecise Exclusive. Using advanced record-linkage technology, the AHD now includes a new file that makes it possible to mine the vast hospital information available in the National Provider Identifier registry database. Hospitals may have dozens of NPI records, each with its own information about a unit, listing facility type and/or medical specialties practiced, as well as separate contact names. To wield the power of this new feature, you'll need the CarePrecise Master Bundle, which contains all of the publicly available NPI registry data. These data are available in other CarePrecise data products.

Counts are approximate due to ongoing updates. Please review the current AHD information here: https://www.careprecise.com/detail_authoritative_hospital_database.htm

The AHD is sold as-is and no warranty is offered regarding accuracy, timeliness, completeness, or fitness for any purpose.

AHA Annual Survey Database for Fiscal Year 2010 is a comprehensive hospital database for health services research and market analysis. It is derived primarily from the AHA Annual Survey of Hospitals, which has been conducted by the American Hospital Association (AHA) or its subsidiary, Health Forum, since 1946. The survey responses are supplemented by data drawn from the American Hospital Association registration database, the US Census Bureau, hospital accrediting bodies, and other organizations. The database maintains hospital characteristics across time to allow researchers to conduct time-series analyses.

Cleaned and merged dataset about US hospital-level quality measures, culled from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services open data API as of July 2019. Assumptions and preprocessing to derive dataset can be found at https://github.com/emigre459/hospital-chargemaster.

This dataset is used in the map tooltip documentation to explain different ways to enhance information in a map.This database represents locations of Hospitals for 50 states and Washington D.C. , Puerto Rico and US territories. The dataset only includes hospital facilities and does not include nursing homes. Data for all the states was acquired from respective states departments or their open source websites and then geocoded and converted into a spatial database. After geocoding the exact spatial location of each point was moved to rooftops wherever possible and points which have been physically verified have been labelled "Geocode", "Imagery", "Imagery with other" and "Unverified" depending on the methodology used to move the points. "Unverified" data points have still not been physically examined even though each of the points has been street geocoded as mentioned above. Missing records are denoted by 'Not Available' or NULL values. Not Available denotes information that was either missing in the source data or data that has not been populated current version. This dataset has been developed to represent Hospitals for inclusion in the HSIP datasets.

The Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP) Kids' Inpatient Database (KID) is the largest publicly available all-payer pediatric inpatient care database in the United States, containing data from two to three million hospital stays each year. Its large sample size is ideal for developing national and regional estimates and enables analyses of rare conditions, such as congenital anomalies, as well as uncommon treatments, such as organ transplantation. Developed through a Federal-State-Industry partnership sponsored by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, HCUP data inform decision making at the national, State, and community levels. The KID is a sample of pediatric discharges from 4,000 U.S. hospitals in the HCUP State Inpatient Databases yielding approximately two to three million unweighted hospital discharges for newborns, children, and adolescents per year. About 10 percent of normal newborns and 80 percent of other neonatal and pediatric stays are selected from each hospital that is sampled for patients younger than 21 years of age. The KID contains clinical and resource use information included in a typical discharge abstract, with safeguards to protect the privacy of individual patients, physicians, and hospitals (as required by data sources). It includes discharge status, diagnoses, procedures, patient demographics (e.g., sex, age), expected source of primary payment (e.g., Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance, self-pay, and other insurance types), and hospital charges and cost. Restricted access data files are available with a data use agreement and brief online security training.

This table shows the low, high, and average percents of discharges related to a referenced DRG (diagnosis-related group) as a share of the total discharges from the top 100 common DRGs for hospitals in the United States. The source of data for this table is FY2011 hospital charges file provided by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

Context

This dataset contains Hospital General Information from the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services. This is the BigQuery COVID-19 public dataset. This data contains a list of all hospitals that have been registered with Medicare. This list includes addresses, phone numbers, hospital types and quality of care information. The quality of care data is provided for over 4,000 Medicare-certified hospitals, including over 130 Veterans Administration (VA) medical centers, across the country. You can use this data to find hospitals and compare the quality of their care

Querying BigQuery tables

You can use the BigQuery Python client library to query tables in this dataset in Kernels. Note that methods available in Kernels are limited to querying data. Tables are at bigquery-public-data.cms_medicare.hospital_general_info.

Sample Query

How do the hospitals in Mountain View, CA compare to the average hospital in the US? With the hospital compare data you can quickly understand how hospitals in one geographic location compare to another location. In this example query we compare Google’s home in Mountain View, California, to the average hospital in the United States. You can also modify the query to learn how the hospitals in your city compare to the US national average.

“#standardSQL SELECT MTV_AVG_HOSPITAL_RATING, US_AVG_HOSPITAL_RATING FROM ( SELECT ROUND(AVG(CAST(hospital_overall_rating AS int64)),2) AS MTV_AVG_HOSPITAL_RATING FROM bigquery-public-data.cms_medicare.hospital_general_info WHERE city = 'MOUNTAIN VIEW' AND state = 'CA' AND hospital_overall_rating <> 'Not Available') MTV JOIN ( SELECT ROUND(AVG(CAST(hospital_overall_rating AS int64)),2) AS US_AVG_HOSPITAL_RATING FROM bigquery-public-data.cms_medicare.hospital_general_info WHERE hospital_overall_rating <> 'Not Available') ON 1 = 1”

What are the most common diseases treated at hospitals that do well in the category of patient readmissions? For hospitals that achieved “Above the national average” in the category of patient readmissions, it might be interesting to review the types of diagnoses that are treated at those inpatient facilities. While this query won’t provide the granular detail that went into the readmission calculation, it gives us a quick glimpse into the top disease related groups (DRG)
, or classification of inpatient stays that are found at those hospitals. By joining the general hospital information to the inpatient charge data, also provided by CMS, you could quickly identify DRGs that may warrant additional research. You can also modify the query to review the top diagnosis related groups for hospital metrics you might be interested in. “#standardSQL SELECT drg_definition, SUM(total_discharges) total_discharge_per_drg FROM bigquery-public-data.cms_medicare.hospital_general_info gi INNER JOIN bigquery-public-data.cms_medicare.inpatient_charges_2015 ic ON gi.provider_id = ic.provider_id WHERE readmission_national_comparison = 'Above the national average' GROUP BY drg_definition ORDER BY total_discharge_per_drg DESC LIMIT 10;”

In 2023, there were, on average, 561 hospital inpatient days per 1,000 population in the United States. The number of hospital inpatient days per capita varied widely between the states. Inhabitants in the District of Columbia had the highest rates at 1.3 hospital inpatient days per person, while there were just 0.3 inpatient days per person in Idaho.

Hospitals. This dataset contains points representing hospital locations, created as part of the DC Geographic Information System (DC GIS) for the D.C. Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO) and participating D.C. government agencies. Hospital locations were identified from public records and heads-up digitized from the snapbase.
