Figure out how to provide better pointers to right contact or link to policy details for each provider #5

Tried to get healthdata.gov owner to add more contact info for each provider... But they don't have that now https://twitter.com/rrelyea/status/1478338179656667137?t=FtnrLS8GzKkOxwdxVdvutw&s=19

then dudewithrrms on Twitter suggested to crowdsource somehow. https://twitter.com/dudewithrrms/status/1478925925811109888?t=ANY7uaTOEnb0XkUiNLtAxQ&s=19

Perhaps hhs_id could help: https://healthdata.gov/Hospital/HHS-IDs/vz64-k9wr

rrelyea commented 2 years ago

it looks like geocoded address column in the evusheld data set, has a matching column in HHS-IDs dataset (see comment above)... That might be a fine key. Gotta verify it is unique...but it likely is unique as a street address. not sure if two different providers use the same street address?

rrelyea commented 2 years ago

no, that geocoded_address column didn't merge well with hhs_ids data. some hits, but not many. we likely need a stable ID provided by the HealthData.gov

3/6/2022 I created Add Info feature, which lets users answer questions about providers, and send them to evusheld-data@relyeas.net via a mailto link (or manually). (this was done because I am trying to keep site lightweight...github actions harvest and process the data when updated. the web site is downloaded to the browser, and all filtering/etc...happens in that browser. There is no server involved as you click on different links in the site)

I still need to finish writing some code to harvest the data from email, publishing the info on site, while keeping names/emails private.
