I'm the author. When I write articles I have to make a choice: make them readable by the public, or detailed enough to satisfy the experts. I try to strike a balance, but I can't have both.

Please take a look at the CMS Price Transparency Guide https://github.com/CMSgov/price-transparency-guide and familiarize yourself with the schema. You can also take a look at the federal ruling: https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-45/subtitle-A/subchapter-...

The metadata you're talking about is specified in the files themselves. I've limited my search to fee-for-service (non-capitated, non-derived, non-bundled) institutional claims.

You can write to me if you have more questions. alec@dolthub.com
