Folio Physician Directories

Folio Physician Directories are divided into a complete Physician Section and a Healthcare Facility Section.

The Directories are published annually. Each directory is completely revised every year with direct verification of each physician and healthcare facility.

The physician information includes multiple practice addresses; mailing addresses (if they differ from practice address); phone, fax and emails; phone extensions and 800 numbers; identifiers such as UPINs and NPIs; medical specialties with board certification; medical school and year of graduation; hospital affiliations; HMO affiliations; and websites.

The facility sections of the Directory include all hospitals and nursing homes in each state as well as a complete listing of group practice and ambulatory care centers with their individual physician rosters.

Folio’s physician and healthcare facility information is developed from a combination of public data sources, proprietary software and its own direct data gathering and verification processes. Folio is unique in the medical industry in developing a state-wide census of all practicing physicians and in directly verifying practice information each year with every provider. Much of the proprietary information in Folio databases results from updates made directly by physicians and facilities using Folio’s website, www.FolioMed.com.

Folio Physician Database on CD-ROM

Folio CD-ROM s contain all the information in the Folio Printed Directories, but include a powerful query tool that enables the user to select and view records based on a single variable or a combination of variables. Querying can be done based on a physician’s name, practice name, type of medical practice, address, specialty, distance around a town or zip, or a combination of these variables.

Each CD-ROM comes with an export capability that allows the user to download 2,000 records (standard CD-ROM) in a variety of formats, including, spreadsheet, delimited text or dbf and to export any or all fields in the record. Additional downloads are available.
