California Healthcare Licensing District Offices with Geocoded Contacts

The California Department of Public Health's Licensing and Certification Program operates 14 district offices and contracts with Los Angeles County, which is divided into 4 district offices. This dataset provides contact information for these offices, which oversee over 30 types of healthcare facilities and is geocoded. The program employs approximately 1,200 staff to conduct state and federal compliance surveys.

Use Cases

• Map geocoded district office locations to analyze geographic coverage for facility inspections.
• Analyze the distribution of 14 state and 4 Los Angeles County district offices relative to healthcare facility density.
• Integrate contact information for compliance and survey coordination across over 30 facility types.

Strengths

• Geocoded contact information for district offices enables spatial analysis.
• Covers a specific regulatory scope of over 30 types of healthcare facilities.
• Originates from the authoritative state program with approximately 1,200 staff.

Limitations

• The exact number of records (rows) and specific data fields (columns) are unknown.
• Data may be focused on administrative points of contact rather than operational survey outcomes.
• Potential for duplication in descriptions of the Los Angeles County contract structure.
