The job it is built for

Know what competitors are planning in your service area before it reaches public notice, and brief leadership on it.

Letters of intent, notices and decisions post on separate VDH pages, and spotting a competitor's filing means checking each one by hand.

What the file gives you

  • Letters of intent with no public notice yet, each matched to the health system behind it.
  • Scorecards for 30+ health systems, plus independent applicants: requests, approval rate, capital requested, staff denials and what is pending.
  • A monthly list of what changed, filtered to the districts, services or competitors you choose.
