CNES Brazil Health Establishments Scraper
Scrape Brazilian health establishments from CNES, the national registry, by state, city, or name, up to a million per run. Each record includes the establishment's CNES code, type, address, and contact details. No login or API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
CNES, the Cadastro Nacional de Estabelecimentos de Saúde, is Brazil's official registry of every public and private health facility, from hospitals to clinics. The official DATASUS portal is built for manual lookups, not bulk data collection. This Actor reads the public CNES search directly, filters by state, city, or establishment name, and returns each match in one fixed schema.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check your filters. If you set a state or city, ensure the codes are correct. Also verify the search term if used. Try broadening your filters.
The run is taking too long.
Reduce the maximum establishments or narrow your filters to a specific state or city.
Some records are missing fields.
CNES may not have complete data for every establishment. Missing fields will be empty in the output.
I get an error about the city code.
The city input expects a 6-digit IBGE municipal code. You can find the code on the IBGE website or by searching for the city name plus 'IBGE code'.
