What markets and geographies can you size with these sources?

Geography runs deep rather than wide: every qualifying source covers the United States, several resolve below the state line. The Area Health Resources Files key to county FIPS, so joins are mechanical - research pulled fips_st_cnty 01001 (Autauga County, AL) and found hosp_23 = 1, one short-term general hospital in 2023, inside a facilities table carrying 716 columns. American Hospital Directory filters its 7,000+ hospitals by urban/rural, CBSA, county, state, ZIP or CCN radius - how service-area questions get answered at facility grain.

For federally supported supply, the HRSA facility finders span all 50 states, DC, Puerto Rico and U.S. territories, returning geocoded sites with latitude, longitude and county name among 13 documented fields.

Can you build a health care facilities market size by country from these?

Not from this slice. These nine size one country in unusual depth - national hospital counts from AHA Fast Facts, county supply from AHRF, program performance from UDS - and none publishes foreign facility counts. Treat the job as single-market sizing: 6,100 US hospitals, 907,216 staffed beds and 35,658,583 admissions make a defensible denominator stack for the American market, quoted to the industry's own trade association.

A cross-country panel needs sources outside this pack; within it, HRSA's finders at least reach the territories alongside the states.

What are the best sources for consumer behavior data on health care facilities?

No survey panel or claims microdata qualifies here; patient behavior arrives as organizational aggregates. The closest signals sit in UDS 2025: a Patient Characteristics Snapshot covering poverty level, insurance status, race and ethnicity, a Hypertension Control Dashboard with five-year trends, and Tables 3A-9E holding patients, visits and staffing for 1,356 awardees.

Revealed behavior has one historical window: HealthData.gov's COVID-19 Hospital Capacity series recorded ICU occupancy, admissions and staffing shortages weekly for roughly 6,000 hospitals through May 3, 2024, with *_coverage columns showing how often each facility reported. Current payor-mix detail requires commissioning AHD Data Services.

How current is health care facilities data?

Three of the nine, where just 22.6% of the 1,744 datasets Datadory catalogs live. Two run annually: UDS keys each release to the calendar closeout (the 2025 workbook was last refreshed 05/07/2026), while AHA Fast Facts carries a two-year publication lag worth respecting in any time series - the 2026 edition reflects the 2024 AHA Annual Survey.

Straight answers

What are the best market sizing data sources for health care facilities?

Add AHA Fast Facts - 6,100 hospitals and 907,216 staffed beds - as the headline baseline, then American Hospital Directory for per-facility benchmarks.

Where can I find health care facilities market size by country data?

This slice sizes one country deeply rather than many thinly. Every qualifying source covers the United States: AHA Fast Facts for national totals, AHRF county files for sub-national splits, HRSA finders spanning all 50 states, DC, Puerto Rico and territories. For cross-country panels you need sources outside these nine - none publishes foreign facility counts.

What are the best sources for consumer behavior data on health care facilities?

Direct consumer panels do not qualify here; patient behavior arrives as organizational aggregates. UDS 2025 carries the closest signals: a Patient Characteristics Snapshot covering poverty level, insurance status and race/ethnicity, plus a Hypertension Control Dashboard with five-year trends. HealthData.gov adds revealed utilization - ICU occupancy and admissions by facility-week - through May 3, 2024.

Where do consultants get their data on health care facilities?

From federal agencies mostly: HRSA supplies the bulk files, locators and UDS reporting, CMS operates NPPES, and HHS published the COVID capacity series. The American Hospital Association contributes the standard baseline, while American Hospital Directory and Definitive Healthcare sell claims depth and contacts.
