Access to health care in the United States depends heavily on where you live. These articles map the gaps: federal Health Professional Shortage Areas for primary care, dental and mental health care, counties with no psychiatrist or no physician at all, how many specialists serve people with hearing, vision, walking and cognitive disabilities, and how rural and urban counties compare. We combine HRSA shortage designations, the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey and the NPI Registry, and every map links down to the state and county level so you can see the situation where you live.
