US Hospice Agencies
U.S. Location Dataset // 6,669

All 6,669 Medicare-certified hospice agencies in the United States, with CMS Certification Number, street address, phone and ownership. Hospice has been one of the most acquisitive parts of healthcare for a decade, with for-profit operators and private equity consolidating a field that was historically non-profit and community-based, so the ownership column carries real signal about who is buying and who is being bought. Agencies purchase medications, durable medical equipment, supplies, staffing and specialized software, and they are geographically defined by service area rather than by walk-in traffic, which makes an address-level national file the right starting point for territory design. Refreshed weekly from CMS.

All 6,669 records, as published — the complete set rather than a sample. That matters most for coverage and gap questions: put together the same list from partial searches and every location you miss reads as a gap that is not there, so the answer is wrong rather than merely late. Assembling the U.S.-wide coverage by hand also means one query per area against sources that cap what they return per search.
