The clinics fall across 364 of the country's 1,642 cities and municipalities, so 1,278 hold none. The register carries no column for stations, chairs, beds, machines or capacity of any kind. Freestanding clinics only — hospital-based units sit on a separate register. The filename rotates monthly and is discoverable only from the accredited-facilities index.\n"
