On January 31, 2017, the Health Hotlines database will be retired.

Released in September 1987, Health Hotlines was developed by NLM as a community service to help the public locate health-related information from organizations with toll-free numbers. NLM is no longer updating the database because most of the information is now readily available through Web search engines.
