Summary:

The Master Facility Inventory (MFI) data collection provides a comprehensive list of hospital facilities in the United States in 1976. The criteria for inclusion were that a facility provided medical, nursing, personal, or custodial care to groups of unrelated persons on an inpatient basis and was licensed or operated by federal or state agencies. The American Hospital Association conducted the survey, supplying the resulting data to the National Center for Health Statistics in order to update its Master Facility Inventory on the number and kinds of hosptals in the United States and the changes in the list since the last MFI survey. Information gathered is for the previous calendar year and includes facility identification information, ownership, number of full- and part-time staff, number of beds per unit, number of adult and pediatric inpatients, numbers in newborn nursery, outpatient utlilization (e.g., emergency care and clinics), major and minor surgical operations, hospital classification (e.g., government, non-government, investor-owned), and finances (e.g., total revenue, expenses, and assets) for 7,271 institutions....
