Did you include HHS hospital charge data? If not, might be a nice fit: http://www.hhs.gov/news/press/2013pres/05/20130508a.html

Our public facing demo at http://www.careprice.co/compare/ utilizes the full CMS data set (200,000+ records) and is freely available. While this data is useful, it doesn't directly represent out-of-pocket costs for consumers and doesn't factor in things such as in-network and out-of-network costs as well as the specific insurance provider plans for a companies employees.

Our vision is that the paid backend version of the site will utilize insurance provider data for each individual's insurance plan to accurately price out healthcare procedures/issues.

We have a grandiose vision and we're looking for a pilot partner insurance company.
