Data freshness
Every fact on this site comes from an official source. This page lists each source, the date its publisher released the data we use, and when we last downloaded it. We check for new releases every month.
Sources checked Nov 11, 2026
What these dates mean
- Data released: the date the official publisher (for example Medicare) put out the version we use. When a section uses several files, the oldest date is shown. Some files cover a period that ended months earlier; each page shows its own measurement period.
- Last downloaded: when we last fetched the files. If a download fails, we keep the previous data and say so here, rather than showing nothing.
- The hand-checked Houston-area hospital profiles were last fully reviewed on Oct 4, 2026.
