  • Facility, resident-population, bed-function, outpatient-function, DPC and physician figures are descriptive aggregations. Each retains its own reference period and reporting scope.
  • These figures do not indicate healthcare quality, need, adequacy, shortage, access, recommendation or rank.
  • Facility-level datasets are not joined unless the source and product contract support that join.
