Primary Care Provider Share

Source

CMS NPPES + HRSA primary care taxonomy · vintage 2026 · refresh cadence: monthly

Share of providers whose primary_specialty matches HRSA primary-care taxonomy codes.

Direction of better

Higher values are better. Used to rank candidate towns/properties; higher score = stronger fit.

Default weight in Health composite

10% of the Health composite by default. Users can override this weight in their intake; the displayed score reflects the user's chosen weighting, never a fixed default.
