Editorial interest 85/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A free map and downloadable tables let people search U.S. hospitals for reported private-equity ownership and related staffing-company ties.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-20 issue.
For
Patients, journalists, and communities checking hospital ownership
Worth noticing
The map separates hospital ownership from private-equity-backed ER, anesthesia, and hospitalist staffing.

Field notes

The classification method combines several kinds of signals: Medicare-reported ownership, an owner's other Medicare enrollment, exact SEC fund-name matches, and a named external tracker. Separate staffing indicators cover emergency rooms, anesthesia, and hospitalists, so a staffing company's ownership is not presented as the hospital's own. The site cautions that automated name matching and incomplete or stale public records can produce errors.
