Sources and method
A hospital is listed when its county, as Medicare records it, is a primary care or mental health HPSA that HRSA designates as a whole county. Shortage areas drawn by census tract or population group, and facilities designated or serving a HPSA, are not placed here, so a Kansas hospital missing here can still count. Every state.
