Hello everyone,

A lot of folks have asked for hospital capacity datasets. While there are some out there there's no comprehensive list with location data. I found a table from the National Health Profile of 2019 that has state wise hospital details including number of beds. 

Took a first pass to turn it into CSV but this needs some manual work to clean up.  The spreadsheet is here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Vb1vtw4lTiP8hThLIVF4Laa8M6ozNz1vcy221Ohulw4/edit#gid=1280229606

I've attached the PDF for reference. The most important thing is to make sure the hospital name and rows match up. Some of the names couldn't be imported because the PDF wasn't rightly encoded. 

Any help appreciated. Please reach out to me if you have any questions.

Updated the sheet. May I kindly request few folks do some Quality Checks before this can be consumed?

Hello Everyone,
I counted the no. of beds capacity from data above it is coming out to be 2,91,817‬ which is way more than the 1lac mark given by the govt.
I am assuming 1lac is corona specific beds, anyways this gives a new scope as we have just 8k short of 3 lacs beds. Correct me if I am wrong.

Hi Sajjad,

I used Camelot a few weeks back to scrape the same data & also added geo-coordinates for the hospitals.

Here is the sheet, hope this helps.

Thanks,

Wow, this is so amazing. Such a great birthday gift, Datameet! I'm going to compile all this and put it up on our Covid project page. Thank you so much everyone!
