I am looking for a dataset containing:

  • hospital names: either full names or abbreviations (ideally, both)

Optionally:

  • location of the hospital (e.g., in which state)
  • size of the hospital (e.g., number of beds, or surface)

I mostly interested in the United States.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_hospitals_in_the_United_States is incomplete and doesn't contain hospital name abbreviations.

    @albert Thanks, I'll look at it. At some point I thought I could get it from Wikidata, but their API doesn't seem so polish. Also data would most likely be incomplete. Feb 9, 2016 at 2:42
  • this could be helpful, but its only medicaid registered facilities, and no abbreviations. however i'm guessing if you track down the facility ids to a more definitive file, the abbr may be there. also, could be completely useless for you data.medicare.gov/Hospital-Compare/Hospital-General-Information/…
