There is utility in this dataset of USA hospitals:
https://dev.socrata.com/foundry/data.medicare.gov/xubh-q36u
https://data.medicare.gov/resource/xubh-q36u.json
https://data.medicare.gov/widgets/xubh-q36u

It contains Hospital Names, geo coordinates, county & providerID
unfortunately it is only for the United States, we need other data.
we can leverage this if we found another dataset such as the email address extensions of all these Hospitals so we could shoot a verification email to receivers / donators who sign up.
of if we had access to an API that had every registered doctor available...
but only if ...

but does not have providerID. We can still use geometry to help validate someone here :(
