This is a record of confirmed changes to PlainHealthAccess data, calculations, tools, and editorial methods. We list only changes that can be checked against a source refresh, a documented calculation, or a version-controlled site update. It is not a claim that every HRSA designation change is reflected immediately; see our methodology for source timing and coverage.

• Added the County Care Access Profile. The new county tool provides a server-rendered view of active primary-care, mental-health, and dental HPSA designations; HPSA severity; MUA status; and county comparisons. Its calculations use the existing HRSA-backed county and designation tables, rather than a new or estimated data source.
• Clarified published tool thresholds. The Provider Gap Calculator now identifies its HRSA primary-care shortage thresholds as external reference values. This was a source-attribution clarification, not a change to a county, state, or designation value.
