What our crawl found on bchd.org

Counts from our October 11, 2026 crawl, which visited 1,000 pages. Our crawler found 702 public documents on bchd.org — an estimated 30,604 pages your team would otherwise inventory by hand.

The crawl stopped at its page limit, so every count here is a minimum: the site has at least this many documents.

Documents by category

  • Other407 · 58%
  • Reports174 · 25%
  • Policies108 · 15%
  • Agendas & minutes7 · <1%
  • Forms6 · <1%

No single category dominates this inventory — the largest bucket is uncategorized material at 58% — so a short sampling pass is the fastest way to establish remediation priorities.

  • PDF 701 · 100%

Checked sample

15 of 50 passed(30%)

  • Passed basic checks: 15
  • Did not pass: 35

The checked files are mixed: some pass the basics and some don't. Fixing the templates you publish from now, while working through older files in batches, usually saves the most time.

The rate covers the 50 files we checked, not all 702 documents. Checks cover tag structure, document language, title, image alt text and form-field labels.

Scanned share

4% scanned

Most of the collection is digital-native text, which keeps remediation at the lighter end: tagging and structure work rather than OCR.

Scanned images need text recognition (OCR) before they can be tagged.

Forms are a small part of this inventory (1%), but each one needs labeled fields and a working tab order before someone using a screen reader can fill it in.

These are machine checks on a sample, not a compliance finding, and they say nothing about the people who publish Beach Cities Health District's documents. The results for the sampled files are public above. The full inventory of every document we found, with detailed per-file reports, is available to verified staff of Beach Cities Health District after claiming this page.

Files we checked on bchd.org

Links go to the files on bchd.org as we found them on October 11, 2026.

These are automated checks on a sample of files as published on October 11, 2026. They are not a legal compliance finding and don't cover reading order, alt-text quality or table structure. Something wrong? Ask for a correction or removal.

Show
The 50 files checked in the sample, with each file's result
FileCategoryResultChecks not passed

50 more checked files are counted above but not linked here: it is on another site or its name looks like a personal record.

What each check looks for

Tagged structure
The file has a tag tree, so assistive technology can tell headings, lists and paragraphs apart.
Document language
The file declares its language, so screen readers pronounce it correctly.
Document title
The file has a document title, shown instead of the file name.
Image alt text
Every image in a tagged file carries alternative text, or the file has no untagged images.
Form field labels
Every fillable form field has a label a screen reader can announce.

How we measured this

  1. 1.Crawl

    We start at the organization's website and follow its sitemaps and links on the same site. We respect robots.txt and crawl delays, and skip login areas.

  2. 2.Classify

    Each document is sorted by file format and, from its link text and file name, into a category such as forms or agendas. Page counts are estimated, often without downloading the whole file.

  3. 3.Check a sample

    We open up to 50 PDFs and run basic machine checks: tags, document title, language, image alt text and form-field labels.

  4. 4.Publish only with evidence

    Figures appear only when a crawl finds at least 25 documents and checks at least 20 of them.

Limits of this method

  • We only see public pages we can reach through links or sitemaps. Documents behind logins or on other services may be missed.
  • Crawls stop at page, document and time limits. When one is hit, the counts are minimums.
  • Categories and page counts are estimates from links, file names and file metadata.
  • Machine checks can't judge reading order, alt text quality or table structure. Passing them is not WCAG 2.1 AA conformance.
  • Figures describe the site on the crawl date, not today.

This page's evidence

  • Crawled October 11, 2026: we fetched 1,000 pages from https://bchd.org/ and found 702 documents.
  • The pass rate comes from machine checks on 50 of those documents, not from checking every file.
  • Changelog: October 11, 2026 — inventory refreshed from the latest crawl.

Frequently asked questions

When is Beach Cities Health District's ADA Title II deadline?

April 26, 2028. Beach Cities Health District is in the 2028 cohort under the Department of Justice's rule on web and mobile accessibility for state and local governments, with compliance dates as set by the Department's interim final rule of April 20, 2026 (91 FR 20902).

How was Beach Cities Health District's deadline set?

Beach Cities Health District is a special district government, and the Census Bureau calculates no population for one. The rule gives every special district government the later date, whatever the size of the area it serves.

How many public documents does Beach Cities Health District have?

Our crawl on October 11, 2026 fetched 1,000 pages from https://bchd.org/ and found at least 702 documents (it stopped at a crawl limit), an estimated 30,604 pages. The full file-level list is available to verified staff after claiming the page.

How many of Beach Cities Health District's documents pass accessibility checks?

15 of the 50 files we checked passed basic machine checks (30%). That is a sample of the 702 documents we found, and passing basic checks is not full WCAG 2.1 AA conformance.

How much would it cost to fix Beach Cities Health District's documents?

Our directional estimate is $8,854 to $13,282 with DocoMatic: about 44,272 credits for 30,604 estimated pages, based on this crawl. It is not a quote.

Which documents should Beach Cities Health District fix first?

Start with patient forms, financial assistance applications and public notices.

Do older PDFs have to be made accessible too?

Not all of them. Documents already posted before the compliance date are excepted unless they are currently used to apply for, gain access to, or participate in the organization's services, programs or activities (28 CFR 35.201(b)). Genuinely archived content is excepted too, but only while it is kept solely for reference, research or recordkeeping, sits in a clearly identified archive area and is not changed. Everything published from the compliance date on is covered, and so is any older file people still use to reach a service.
