CartoChrome tracks active, patient-facing providers with valid NPIs in West Virginia through the CMS NPPES registry, then connects them to ZIP-level access scores. Provider totals are refreshed through the data pipeline rather than estimated on this page.
The score uses CMS NPPES (providers), CMS Hospital and Care Compare (facilities), HRSA HPSA designations (shortage areas), USDA RUCA codes (urbanicity), and the Census ACS (demographics, insurance, transportation). All sources are public and refreshed on the schedule documented at /methodology/.
