"A few days ago, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)
released some unprecedented data on the US healthcare system. The data
consists of 9 million rows showing how much each doctor in the US
charged Medicare, for what, and how much Medicare paid out. It doesn't
quite cover everything (for example, services with less than 11
beneficiaries were removed for privacy reasons), but its the best
thing we've got.
Immediately after the release, we started seeing news stories about
how some doctors were making millions of dollars. This information is
easily found, and easily sensationalized, but I started to wonder what
less obvious things might be in the data..." -- Apr 13, 2014
