Rate Benchmarking

Compute percentiles by payer, state, specialty, and billing code.

Fee Schedule Management

Build and update fee schedules grounded in real market data.

MRF data, delivered to your lakehouse

Commercial payers publish machine-readable files with their negotiated provider rates. The problem is the files are enormous JSON documents, hundreds of gigabytes per payer, and turning them into something queryable takes real engineering work.

PayerPrice handles that pipeline and delivers clean, structured tables to your Databricks environment via Delta Sharing. Accept the share through Unity Catalog and you're querying with SQL or PySpark.

Why Databricks teams use this

You already have the compute and the tooling. What you probably don't have is a clean feed of payer rate data that fits natively into your lakehouse architecture.

Building a custom MRF pipeline is a multi-month project with ongoing maintenance. PayerPrice's data share gives your team current, structured tables, refreshed monthly without adding another pipeline to babysit.

What the data covers

Contractual negotiated rates from over 200 commercial payers including UnitedHealthcare, Elevance (Anthem), Aetna, and Cigna. Rates for every billable code type: CPT, HCPCS, MS-DRG, Revenue Codes, and more.

Filter across 100+ columns including NPI, TIN, payer, plan, network, taxonomy code, and geography down to zip code. Medicare percentage benchmarks are included so you can run percentile positioning and percent-of-Medicare comparisons in the same environment.

How teams use it

Revenue cycle teams build automated pipelines comparing contracted rates against remittance data to catch underpayments and flag rate degradation, sometimes piping results into Tableau or Power BI for the contracting team.

The highest-value pattern: joining payer rates with internal claims and volume data in the same lakehouse. Fee schedule optimization, market expansion modeling, M&A diligence.

Also available via REST API or Snowflake Data Share.

Delta Sharing — open protocol

Standard Delta Sharing tables. No proprietary connectors, no vendor lock-in. Query with SQL, Python, Spark, or any Delta Sharing client.

“In one instance, we were prepared to accept sub-optimal rates based on flawed rate assumptions, and reversed course once we got access to PayerPrice.”

Databricks Data Share FAQs

Your questions answered

We send you a Delta Sharing invitation. You accept it in your Databricks workspace and the tables appear in Unity Catalog. Most teams are live in under a day.

We process new machine-readable files from payers every month. Updated data appears in the share within days of payer publication. No action needed on your side.

The share includes Delta tables for negotiated rates, provider-payer mappings, and plan metadata. Over 100 columns including NPI, TIN, payer, plan, network, taxonomy, billing code, modifier, place of service, and state. Pre-built views cover common query patterns.

Yes. We can provision a share scoped to the payers, states, or specialties you need. This keeps the data volume manageable and the cost predictable.

Pricing is based on the scope of data shared. You pay for the Databricks compute you use to query it. Contact us for pricing details.

Yes. We retain historical MRF snapshots so you can track rate changes over time. The historical depth depends on your plan.

You do. Queries run on your Databricks clusters, so you control the size, runtime, and cost. The data share itself is read-only.

The share includes commercial payer negotiated rates from published MRFs — currently 200+ payers. It does not include Medicare fee schedules (those are public and free), Medicaid rates, or payers that have not yet published compliant MRFs.
