Federal Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) designations — geographic areas, populations, and facilities with a critical shortage of primary-care, dental, or mental-health providers.
State Professional Licensing & Disciplinary Records
Primary-source professional license rosters and disciplinary actions published by state licensing boards. Fonteum holds 7,853,561 license records across four states (IL, WA, CO, CT) and 128,342 disciplinary actions across four (IL, WA, NY, CO). Name- and license-number-keyed; the public extracts carry no NPI, so entity-graph linkage is deferred. Source:
