CURRENT RUNTIME TRUTH
A bounded public-web discovery worker is built; API credentials and scheduling are still required.
The worker processes at most three exact-registration jobs per run through a licensed search API. Results remain unverified candidates for review. It never automatically creates a facility claim or doctor affiliation, and it never mines private profiles, personal contact data, residential addresses or inferred social graphs.

STATE DEFINITIONS
Each label describes a different operational fact.
QUEUEDAwaiting source planningThe exact registration has a D1 work item, but no external query has started.
WAITING_FOR_SOURCE_ACCESSBlocked by source accessPlanning found no approved person-keyed adapter. The job stays open and is not a no-match result.
RESEARCHINGExternal check in progressA dated query using an approved adapter has actually started.
IN_REVIEWEvidence under reviewCandidate, facility or affiliation evidence exists but is not yet publishable.
NEEDS_RETRYRetry requiredA dated attempt failed or became unavailable and has a future action.
COMPLETEDCycle completedThe reviewed cycle finished. This never means the doctor has no workplace.
A facility exists at a professional address.
Stored independently even when no doctor relationship has been found.
- Identity
- Name, facility type and source record ID
- Location
- Professional address, city, State and PIN
- Identifiers
- HFR ID, establishment ID, accreditation or other source identifier
- Web evidence
- Official website, evidence URL and observation date
A particular doctor is linked to that facility.
Requires an exact registration-scoped identity and its own dated evidence.
- Doctor
- Canonical registration key and source-reported name
- Relationship
- Department and role only when explicitly published
- Evidence
- Affiliation source URL and observation date
- Decision
- Confidence, identity-match basis and review status
A zero-result or unavailable response is retained as an attempt, never converted into “the doctor has no workplace.” Candidate-only observations remain unpublished until corroborated.
SOURCE COVERAGE PLAN
Sources have deliberately different jobs.
ABDM Health Facility Registry public search
An HFR profile can establish a facility name, identifier, professional address, type and website. It does not by itself establish that a named doctor works there.
- Facility claim
- Supported
- Affiliation claim
- Never inferred
- Collection
- Public facility search or approved HFR interface
ABDM HPR public professional directory
Enrollment and public visibility are voluntary. Absence is never an adverse finding, and a facility relationship is used only when the public professional record states it.
- Facility claim
- Supported
- Affiliation claim
- Evidence may be retained
- Collection
- Approved public interface or onboarded API only
National Hospital Directory with geocode
The dataset supplies facility identity and location fields. It must not be used to infer a doctor affiliation, and source freshness is retained per snapshot.
- Facility claim
- Supported
- Affiliation claim
- Never inferred
- Collection
- Versioned official CSV snapshot under the Government Open Data License - India
Official hospital or clinic clinician directory
The page must identify the doctor and facility unambiguously. A directory entry is time-bounded and does not prove hospital privileges.
- Facility claim
- Supported
- Affiliation claim
- Evidence may be retained
- Collection
- Per-domain policy review, respectful rate limits, and dated observations
Direct healthcare-facility confirmation
Confirmation is valid only for the stated facility, relationship, and review period.
- Facility claim
- Supported
- Affiliation claim
- Evidence may be retained
- Collection
- Authenticated, consent-aware submission and review
National and State Clinical Establishments registers
Coverage varies by State. Facility registration confirms the establishment, not that a particular doctor currently practises there.
- Facility claim
- Supported
- Affiliation claim
- Never inferred
- Collection
- Published register or export when available
CGHS empanelled hospitals and diagnostic centres
Empanelment can corroborate facility identity and address for the publication period. It does not identify every facility or establish an individual doctor relationship.
- Facility claim
- Supported
- Affiliation claim
- Never inferred
- Collection
- Versioned official publication or export
NABH accredited healthcare-organisation directory
The directory identifies participating facilities and accreditation context; it does not establish an individual doctor affiliation.
- Facility claim
- Supported
- Affiliation claim
- Never inferred
- Collection
- Public directory within published access rules
Doctor-confirmed practice location
A doctor statement is displayed as doctor-confirmed until independently confirmed by the facility.
- Facility claim
- Supported
- Affiliation claim
- Evidence may be retained
- Collection
- Authenticated claim with private identity review
Google Programmable Search professional-web discovery
Search results may identify possible public professional, facility, directory or social pages. They create discovery candidates only; they do not create facility or doctor-affiliation claims automatically. Private profiles, personal contact data, residential addresses and inferred social graphs are excluded.
- Facility claim
- Supported
- Affiliation claim
- Evidence may be retained
- Collection
- Official JSON API, bounded batches and review-only candidate retention
Justdial public professional and facility directory
Editable directory information may be stale or user-supplied. It can generate a candidate but cannot by itself produce a verified affiliation.
- Facility claim
- Supported
- Affiliation claim
- Evidence may be retained
- Collection
- Manual observation or licensed/permissioned feed only
Public professional social profile
Only deliberately public professional claims may be considered. Personal posts, private profiles, contact details, inferred locations, and scraped social graphs are excluded.
- Facility claim
- Supported
- Affiliation claim
- Evidence may be retained
- Collection
- Official platform API, permissioned feed, or manual observation only
