The Illinois Department of Public Health actually owns\nthe dataset.  I¹m not sure if this particular one could be published on\ndata.illinois.gov due to privacy concerns, but certainly other datasets of\nhealthcare facility licensure and certification status could and should be\npublished.  For instance, when I was at IDPH, we received many requests for\nup-to-date long term care facility lists.  While seemingly basic, this was\ntypically run through an old database and a PDF report was provided to the\nrequestor.  I published a machine-readable dataset\n<https://data.illinois.gov/Public-Health/IDPH-Skilled-Nursing-Facilities-Nur\nsing-Homes-/jaeu-5c56> , but it hasn¹t been updated in a couple of years.\n\nMuch data about the outcomes\n<https://ltc.dph.illinois.gov/webapp/LTCApp/federalsurvey.jsp?facilityid=600\n0012>  of inspections are also available\n<https://ltc.dph.illinois.gov/webapp/LTCApp/listing.jsp?facilityid=6000012>\n, but not machine-readable.  Since Stephen Konya left I¹m not sure who the\nopen data champion at IDPH is.  Interestingly, this type of information is\nfrequently requested through FOIA, which tends to be a nice catalyst for\npublishing open data.\nMatt\n\nFrom:  Mark Silverberg <notifications@github.com>\nReply-To:  smartchicago/chicago-atlas\n<reply+00646044cf17af5a87fd87da67726c9f5e8bab6e8e2d792192cf0000000111be9dd39\n2a169ce05a679b1@reply.github.com>\nDate:  Wednesday, July 15, 2015 at 5:16 PM\nTo:  smartchicago/chicago-atlas <chicago-atlas@noreply.github.com>\nSubject:  Re: [chicago-atlas] Hospital Discharge Data, Sep 2013 through Aug\n2014 (#222)\n\n\nJust thinking out loud... should this data get onto data.cityofchicago.org\nto make sure the integrity/chain of command is documented, hopefully kept up\nto date, and API enabled so data is not floating around on Github.\n\nI work for Socrata who partners with the City on data.cityofchicago.org if\nthere is anything I can do to connect you and the data owners with the right\npeople.\n\nMark\nmark.silvererg@socrata.com\n\n\nReply to this email directly or view it on GitHub\n<https://github.com/smartchicago/chicago-atlas/issues/222#issuecomment-12176\n5558> .\n\n \n   \n \n\n\n"}}
