Application purpose & properties
Medicare is the US government organization for medical care. They provide a lot of data about healthcare (providers), hospitals, physicians and more. The Hospital Compare data allows you to compare the quality of care at over 4,000 Medicare-certified hospitals across the country. We wanted to put the data in a format so that people can make a better decision on where they decide to seek healthcare.
- The data is retrieved from the Medicare.gov Hospital Compare Website and is only about infections.
- The data is stored in a sqlite database.
- The application is developed by Scott Stoltzman and Ger Inberg
