HRSA, the federal Health Resources and Services Administration, designates Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs): places, population groups, or facilities with too few primary care, mental health, or dental providers. An area designation covers a geographic area or a population group, such as low-income residents. A facility designation covers one site, such as a health center or clinic. Each has a score from 0 to 25 (0 to 26 for dental); a higher score means greater need.

HRSA lists 7 designated shortage rows in Travis County: primary care 2 (highest score 19), mental health 3 (highest score 15), and dental 2 (highest score 25). 1 covers a geographic area or population group; the other 6 are facility designations.

Area and population designations

In the Type column, an HPSA Population designation covers one group of people in the area. In HRSA's designation names, LI means low-income residents, and MHCA means mental health catchment area.

CMS Care Compare lists 10 acute care or critical access hospitals in Travis County. The CMS file in this snapshot does not compare these rates with the national rate, so none is marked better or worse.

Each rate is the share of patients readmitted within 30 days of discharge, July 2023 to June 2025. "n/a" means CMS did not publish a rate for that hospital.
