This data set is the result of an effort to identify hospitals both licensed to operate in Minnesota or significant to Minnesota citizens. For example, major hospitals in Fargo, North Dakota and La Crosse, Wisconsin are included due to their proximity to population centers in Minnesota that are closer to those facilities than other hospitals in Minnesota. The main source of licensed hospitals is the Directory of Licensed and Certified Health Care Providers at the Minnesota Department of Health: https://gisdata.mn.gov/dataset/health-facility-providers Additional non-Minnesota locations were manually sourced from open directories and public map databases., To provide state agencies and the general public with a basic overview of the locations of major hospitals that serve the general population, and provide links back to the Minnesota Department of Health licensing systems for pertinent details., Data was downloaded and geocoded in March 2020.
