How Cosmetic Surgery Record Maps presents regulator data

Record completeness

Record completeness reports whether fields selected for each regulator source are populated. It is not a procedure, license, accreditation, safety, outcome, provider-price, or suitability score.

Merge rules

Each source maps its native columns into canonical fields. Lower priority numbers win when two sources provide different values. Every observation remains attached to the record with its source URL and observation date.

Current sources

• California Medical Board Outpatient Surgery Setting Database Source key: ca_mbc_outpatient_settings
• IDPH Ambulatory Surgical Treatment Center Directory Source key: il_idph_astc
• Colorado DORA Professional and Occupational Licenses Source key: co_dora_plastic_cosmetic_physicians

Pricing evidence

Published prices remain separate observations with their billing unit, basis, effective period, check date, and direct source. Market benchmarks are attached at the most specific matching geography and are not treated as provider quotes.

• ASPS 2024 national surgeon and physician fee ranges Pricing source key: asps_2024_surgeon_fee_ranges

Limitations

This release keeps surgical settings and physicians distinct. California settings have explicit source-reported cosmetic or plastic-surgery specialties; Illinois ASTCs have no specialty field; Colorado physician records have an explicit Plastic/Cosmetic Surgery specialty. These regulator records do not establish procedure availability, board certification, practitioner skill, a physician-facility relationship, outcomes, provider price, safety, or quality. Separately displayed ASPS national ranges are surgeon/physician fee benchmarks, not listed-provider or total-procedure prices. Colorado public-action fields appear only when DORA publishes an action row; a missing field is not a finding of no discipline. Map points use published mailing or facility ZIP-area centroids. Verify decision-critical facts with the regulator, facility, and qualified clinicians.
