Immediate access to health statistics from the most extensive longitudinal hospital care data collection in the United States.

Explore the HCUPnet Data Tools

HCUPnet is an online data tool based on data from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP).

The data tool provides healthcare statistics and information for hospital inpatient and emergency department settings, as well as population-based healthcare data on counties. Generate tables and graphs on national and regional statistics and trends for community hospitals in the United States.

Community-Level Statistics — Inpatient Stays, Quality Indicators

Community-Level Statistics (CLS) are from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP), State Inpatient Databases (SID), based on data collected by individual States and provided to AHRQ by State Partners. Statistics are aggregated to the patient residence (county, substate region, and State).  Weighted national estimates are from the HCUP National (Nationwide) Inpatient Sample (NIS). For more information, see “Calculating Community-Level Statistics for HCUPnet: Methods” PDF. See also AHRQ Quality Indicators.

Querying a single data year will produce small cell sizes and generally more cell suppression than querying a three-year period. Similarly, county queries will produce smaller cell sizes and more cell suppression than region queries, because region generally comprises multiple counties.
