Hospital Registers

FAQ
Do the Hospital Registers have contact names?
In short no, but you do not really need them. European hospitals have a strict hierarchy and a letter to the Head of Department will be opened by that person. Get the name wrong and the letter will be binned.

There are about 250,000 chief doctors and managers in the 16,000+ hospitals in our database. About 40% change their job each year. To maintain a 10% accuracy we would have to check 250,000 names every 3 months (roughly 4,000 per day).
What are your data sources?
Most information comes directly from the hospitals.
Additional data is also obtained from other sources. The information from each source has its limitations, but when combined becomes an invaluable resource.
  • Government figures
  • Published directories
  • Hospital associations
  • Medical and other associations
  • New reports
How often are the Hospital Registers updated?
The Hospital Registers are updated continuously. Almost every day new information is added or current entries are amended.

All new or modified information is checked twice before it is uploaded to the online database.
How much does it cost?
The European Hospital Register (24 countries and 19,000+ hospitals) costs £1,500 for a single user annual subscription. However, the price per person drops rapidly for multiple subscriptions.

The single European countries (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom) cost £400 each for a single annual subscription. Again, there are generous discounts for multiple subscriptions.

The American Hospital Register costs £1,000 per person per year, less per person for multiple subscription discounts.
