Federal Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) designations — geographic areas, populations, and facilities with a critical shortage of primary-care, dental, or mental-health providers.
HRSA Uniform Data System (UDS)
Annual self-reported performance data for federally funded health centers (FQHCs). The Grant Year 2024 extract covers 1,359 Health Center Program awardees, 16,334 service-delivery sites, and 18,046 clinical-quality-measure rows across 14 measures, serving 32.4 million patients. Awardee-level aggregate reporting; the public extract carries no NPI or CCN. Source:

}This example documents a normalized shape; it does not establish that a FHIR endpoint or bulk export is available for this catalog entry. When a record includes _source, _methodology, snapshot-date, or confidence fields, those fields are nullable and delivery surfaces can return different subsets. Published bulk files are listed separately in the bulk manifest.
Fields in this record
What each field in the illustrative Organization mapping means.
The fields below are derived from the displayed illustrative FHIR Organization mapping. When a record includes source-metadata fields (_source, _methodology, and a snapshot date), they describe that delivered record. Those fields are nullable and may be absent from a response; identity fields key the record and data fields carry the measured values.
