Unmet Need Score Map Tool
We use the Unmet Need Score (UNS) to understand service area needs.
This map tool lets you calculate the UNS of a specific area using ZIP Codes. You can use this tool to help determine if an area needs a new health center site.
To start using the tool, select the ZIP Codes that make up your proposed service area.
For more information about the UNS, review the UNS User Guide and UNS Data Sources for details about the measures that make up the UNS.
