Critical Access Hospital → critical access hospital – This is a generic term for a category of facilities, not a proper name. Per capitalization guidelines (MOS:CAPS, WP:NCCAPS), generic terms are lowercase in article titles. The term is lowercase in 42 U.S.C. § 1395x and § 1395i-4 where it is defined and described. int21h (talk · contribs · email) 17:07, 7 September 2025 (UTC)
- Rename per nom. * Pppery * it has begun... 18:41, 7 September 2025 (UTC)
- Support per nom. Although CMS and other gov't sources do often capitalize, this appears out of step with typical usage per the cited law as well as Ngram and a quick review of Google News sources. --MYCETEAE 🍄🟫—talk 21:30, 8 September 2025 (UTC)
- Support: It's a category, not a proper noun. No other reason to capitalize. Change it. SchreiberBike | ⌨ 00:15, 10 September 2025 (UTC)
- Support, n-grams show that lowercase is the correct common name. Randy Kryn (talk) 02:47, 10 September 2025 (UTC)
