- 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.
