This dataset is a summary of the emergency department (ED) encounters reported in SPARCS data, summarized by facility and quarter of visit. ED encounters are classified according to the claim type associated with the SPARCS record into treat and release ED visits, ED visits that required ambulatory surgery, and ED visits that resulted in an inpatient admission.

This dataset contains monthly snapshots of the number of enrollments by zip code in the New York State Donate Life Registry beginning in September 2008. The registry is a confidential database that records a person’s consent to organ/tissue donation upon death. The database is used by donation professionals to determine a person's donation status at the time of their death. For more information, please visit https://donatelife.ny.gov/.

New York State Baby Names are aggregated and displayed by the year, county, or borough where the mother resided as stated on a New York State or New York City (NYC) birth certificate. The frequency of the baby name is listed if there are 5 or more of the same baby name in a county outside of NYC or 10 or more of the same baby name in a NYC borough.

This dataset is used for mapping purposes, and does not contain any data.

The Student Weight Status Category Reporting System (SWSCR) collects weight status category data (underweight, healthy weight, overweight or obese, based on BMI-for-age percentile) on children and adolescents attending public school in New York State, outside New York City.

The dataset includes separate estimates of the percent of students that are overweight, obese and overweight or obese for all reportable grades within the county and/or region and by grade groups (elementary and middle/high). The rates of overweight and obesity reported are percentages based on counts of students in selected grades (Pre-K, K, 1, 3, 5, & 7, 9, 11) reported to the NYSDOH. District, county, regional and statewide estimates are provided biennially. Data can be filtered by a variety of variables within the dataset and exported into various formats for additional analyses. Half of the public schools in New York State, exclusive of New York City, are required to report Student Weight Status data each year. It takes two years to collect a full cycle of data for all eligible school districts in the state.

Beginning in 2010, all data reported through the Student Weight Status Category Reporting System have been released on the Health Data New York website. Prior to 2010, data from SWSCR were released through printable report and continue to be incorporated into reports released to the public. These reports are accessible through web-links posted on this page.

The dataset includes LHCSA information at the reporting agency level of the total number of patients, cases, and discharges for the reporting year.

This version of the Institutional Cost Report (ICR) has been audited by a Certified Public Accounting Firm. The ICR is a uniform report completed by New York State hospitals to report income, expenses, assets, liabilities, and statistics to the Department of Health (DOH). Under DOH regulations, (Part 86-1.2), Article 28 hospitals are required to file financial and statistical data with DOH annually. The data filed is part of the ICR and is received electronically through a secured network. This data is used to develop Medicaid rates, assist in the formulation of reimbursement methodologies, and analyze trends.

A subset of the Mobile Home Parks: Last Inspection dataset, only showing locations with less than 51 sites.

This dataset includes the name and location of active mobile home parks operating in New York State. Active mobile home parks include only parks that were categorized as active (i.e., operating with accommodations for the placement of five or more mobile or manufactured homes) on the date the data was downloaded from a Department of Health database. This data also includes the date of the last inspection and violations of Part 17 of the New York State Code of Rules and Regulations that were identified during that inspection. Additionally, the data includes the park owner-operator, the number of sites within the park, the type of on-site water source and sewage disposal system serving the mobile home park, and whether a pool or beach is operated as part of the mobile home park. The location of the mobile home park includes its street address, city, state, zip code, municipality, and county.

Tick-borne diseases, such as Lyme disease, anaplasmosis and babesiosis, are a significant issue in New York (NY), impacting well over 10,000 individuals yearly. The New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) has a responsibility to perform surveillance to monitor and track different kinds of tick-borne diseases. While most surveillance is done via reportable cases of human illness, tick-borne diseases can also be monitored by collecting ticks from the environment (called active surveillance) and testing them for bacteria, viruses, and parasites known to cause illness in people (collectively called pathogens). Active surveillance allows local county health departments in NY, excluding New York City (NYC), to have a better understanding of the tick populations present in the state, the species composition of the tick population, and the rate at which ticks are infected with different pathogens. The Department started testing ticks in 2002 in limited areas; testing statewide began in 2008. Further information on NYSDOH active tick surveillance can be found at the URL below and in the Data Methodology section below.

This dataset reports the number of people vaccinated by New York providers who have received a dose of the annual COVID-19 vaccine and the number who have received the annual Influenza vaccine, beginning with the 2024-2025 season.

Note: This dataset replaces two prior COVID-19 vaccination datasets. Please refer to the notes section below for links to the archived data.

This dataset measures the air and water near Indian Point and other locations(background) around NYS to determine the normal levels of radioactivity and monitors the influence of human activities on these levels. The site numbers represent the location from which samples are collected.

This dataset is not designed, or intended to monitor releases from discharge points at a specific facility (e.g., a stack). The facility operator performs this type of monitoring to meet the requirements of its licensing agency (e.g., a federal agency or the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation). A column has been added for values which can be graphed. Readings where a less than value is displayed show a value that is less than the detection limit of the measurement method and are essentially equivalent to 0. Variations in detection limit are due to variations in sample collection and measurement instrument performance.

The New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) collects annual data on children’s and adults’ use of health services. This information complements the quality of care and member satisfaction information collected through an annual public reporting system called the Quality Assurance Reporting Requirements (QARR). Utilization measures are designed to capture the frequency of certain services provided by health plans. NCQA does not view higher or lower services counts as better or worse performance. Plans with fewer than 30 eligible events are excluded from the statistical calculations of the percentiles.
