Important: due to the holidays, the data will not be updated on its normal schedule. The next scheduled refresh will occur January 29th.

Some of the datasets have changed for October 2019, please see the Data Dictionary for updates on these changes.

The data.medicare.gov archive page has been rearranged such that there is now one zip file for each month, containing all files from that month.

Users of the downloadable Nursing Home Compare database should be aware that periodically changes are made to the structure of the csv files. See the Revisions tab in the Data Dictionary.
