Overview of the State Inpatient Databases (SID)| hcup-us.ahrq.gov
What types of hospitals are included in the SID depends on the information provided by the Data Organizations and how the files were handled during HCUP processing. Most state government data organizations provide information on all acute care hospitals in the respective state. Private data organizations are often restricted to member hospitals and may not provide information on all hospitals in their state.| hcup-us.ahrq.gov
