Abstract:  The North Carolina State Center for Health Statistics in cooperation with the Division of Facility Services in the Department of Health and Human Services, developed the GIS data set, Medical Facility Point Locations, to identify locations of health and medical facilities for the entire State of North Carolina. Point locations were geocoded from the facilities database provided by the Division of Facility Services.

Purpose: This data set was created to locate health and medical facilities (including hospitals) for the State of North Carolina.

Limitations of use: NCCGIA is charged with the development and maintenance of NC OneMap and, in cooperation with other mapping organizations, is committed to offering its users accurate, useful, and current information. Although every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of information, errors and conditions originating from physical sources used to develop this dataset may be reflected in the data supplied. The user must be aware of possible conditions and bear responsibility for the appropriate use of the information with respect to possible errors, original map scale, collection methodology, currency of data, and other conditions specific to certain data.

Data quality report - Conceptual consistency:
Measure description: 5,379 of the 7,159 addresses had match rates of 100%. Match rates lower than 100% were also considered a match because variables such only had minor errors. The address table and the road file did not coincide because of the currentness of the address table. Minor errors detected from either the road file or the address table include incorrect zip codes, incomplete address ranges and inconsistant road name formats. Addresses with no address ranges were geocoded to the closest road intersection. Addresses with discrepancies and/or improper formats were simply corrected and matched. 352 addresses had zero match rates because roads were non-existant in the road file. Several problems attributed to addresses having zero percent match rates include non-existant roads, non-existant road address ranges and improper zip codes. Facilities with rural routes and post office box addresses also had a zero percent match rate.
