## Pricing

from $3.85 / 1,000 results

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## HRSA NHSC & NURSE Corps Clinician Workforce Site Monitor

Pull the official list of **HRSA-approved clinical sites** eligible for federal
loan-repayment and scholarship programs — **NHSC** (National Health Service
Corps), **NURSE Corps**, and **STAR LRP** — as clean, structured rows. Every
site comes with its **type, approval status, HPSA shortage scores, phone, email,
full address, county FIPS, congressional district, and lat/lon**, plus an
optional **state / program / site-type rollup**.

Data source: HRSA Bureau of Health Workforce public ArcGIS server
(`gisportal.hrsa.gov` → `BHW/BHW_Sites`). Keyless, public, refreshed by HRSA.

### Who it's for
- **Clinician & locum staffing agencies** — NHSC/NURSE Corps sites are
  loan-repayment-eligible *employers*: warm recruiting leads for physicians, NPs,
  PAs, dentists, and behavioral-health clinicians who want their loans paid.
- **Health-workforce planners & researchers** — model provider supply, shortage
  (HPSA) exposure, and rural access by state, county, or congressional district.
- **FQHC / RHC vendors & GPOs** — a targeted list of safety-net facilities with
  contact info for outreach.
- **Grant writers & policy teams** — quantify program footprint and shortage
  severity across geographies.

### Example input
```json
{
  "state": "California",
  "program": "NHSC",
  "siteType": "FQHC",
  "ruralOnly": false,
  "minHpsaScore": 15,
  "includeSummary": true,
  "maxResults": 5000
}
````

Leave everything blank to pull **all NHSC sites nationwide**. Set `program` to
`NurseCorps` or `STAR` for those program lists. `state` accepts a full name
("California") or a 2-letter code ("CA", "PR", "GU").

### Output fields

One row per site (`record_type: "site"`): `site_id`, `site_name`, `program`,
`site_type`, `site_status`, cross-program flags (`nhsc_*`, `nursecorps_*`,
`star_*`), `address`, `city`, `county`, `county_fips`, `state`, `state_abbrev`,
`zip`, `phone`, `fax`, `email`, `hpsa_primary_care`, `hpsa_dental`,
`hpsa_mental_health`, `rural_status`, `region`, `cong_district_code`,
`cong_district_name`, `census_tract`, `latitude`, `longitude`.

With `includeSummary: true`, one extra `record_type: "summary"` row is appended
with `total_sites`, `sites_with_email`, `sites_with_phone`, `rural_sites`, and
counts `by_state`, `by_site_type`, and `by_site_status`.

### Use as an MCP tool

This Actor is callable by AI agents (Claude, Cursor, etc.) via
[mcp.apify.com](https://mcp.apify.com). The field-level output descriptions make
it a clean, chainable tool — e.g. "list active NHSC FQHC sites in Texas with a
primary-care HPSA score above 18 and return their phone and email."

### FAQ

**Where does the data come from?** HRSA's public Bureau of Health Workforce
ArcGIS service (`BHW/BHW_Sites`). No API key required.

**What's the difference between NHSC, NURSE Corps, and STAR?** They are three
HRSA loan-repayment/scholarship programs; each has its own list of approved
sites. Pick one via the `program` input. Each returned row also carries the
other programs' type/status flags so you can cross-reference.

**What is an HPSA score?** A Health Professional Shortage Area score (0-26)
rates how severe the provider shortage is at that location — higher means more
underserved and higher loan-repayment priority. Filter with `minHpsaScore`.

**How do I get a downloadable clinician-recruiting lead list?** Filter by
`state` and `siteType`, run, then export the dataset as CSV/Excel/JSON.

**Does it cover territories?** Yes — Puerto Rico, Guam, and the US Virgin
Islands appear when present in HRSA's data.

### Notes & caveats

- Coverage = whatever HRSA currently publishes in `BHW/BHW_Sites`; site rosters
  change as programs re-approve sites.
- This layer does not expose a per-site "date added" field, so the Actor ships a
  program/state/type/status **rollup** rather than a date-based new-since delta.
  For change tracking, schedule the Actor and diff dataset snapshots on `site_id`.
- Email is only present when HRSA publishes it (not every site).

# Actor input Schema

## `state` (type: `string`):

Filter sites by US state. Accepts a full name (e.g. "California") or a 2-letter code (e.g. "CA"). Also works for territories (PR, GU, VI). Leave blank for all states/territories.

## `program` (type: `string`):

Which HRSA Bureau of Health Workforce program's approved-site list to pull. NHSC = National Health Service Corps, NurseCorps = NURSE Corps Loan Repayment, STAR = Substance Use Disorder Treatment and Recovery.

## `siteType` (type: `string`):

Optional case-insensitive substring filter on the site type (e.g. "FQHC", "Rural Health Clinic", "Community Mental Health", "Indian Health"). Leave blank for all site types.

## `siteStatus` (type: `string`):

Optional exact filter on site status (e.g. "Active"). Leave blank for all statuses.

## `ruralOnly` (type: `boolean`):

If enabled, return only sites flagged Rural by HRSA.

## `minHpsaScore` (type: `integer`):

Optional minimum Health Professional Shortage Area (primary care) score, 0-26. Higher scores = greater shortage = higher loan-repayment priority. Leave blank for no minimum.

## `includeSummary` (type: `boolean`):

If enabled, append one extra summary row with site counts by state, site type, and status plus contactability totals.

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of site rows to return.
