Healthcare
Healthcare data extraction from public sources.
FDA filings, NPI registry, clinical trials, hospital pricing, quality metrics — extracted as structured CSV or JSON. We work with public, non-PHI sources by default and scope every project against HIPAA, GDPR, and applicable health-data regulations before delivery.
Source coverage
Pricing & access
- Hospital chargemaster files (CMS Price Transparency Rule)
- Medicare Part D and Medicaid pricing
- Public payer formularies
- 340B program lookups
Quality & operations
- CMS Hospital Compare quality metrics
- Provider directories from public health-system pages
- Public credentialing and licensure databases
- State medical-board disciplinary actions
Documents & literature
- PubMed metadata and abstracts
- Public clinical guidelines (NICE, USPSTF)
- Hospital policy and patient-information PDFs
- Drug label and package insert text

FAQ
Is healthcare data scraping HIPAA-compliant?
HIPAA applies to Protected Health Information (PHI) handled by covered entities and their business associates — not to public data. We extract from public regulatory, registry, and pricing sources that do not contain PHI. We do not scrape patient portals, EHR systems, or any source where authentication implies a HIPAA boundary. Engagements that touch PHI require a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) and additional scoping; that is not our default service.
Do you handle EHR data?
Out of scope by default. EHR data is governed by HIPAA, vendor-specific access agreements (Epic, Cerner / Oracle Health, athenahealth), and patient consent. If your project involves EHR data, you need a vendor with a covered-entity relationship and signed BAAs — we route those engagements to specialist providers.
Can you extract from clinical trial PDFs?
Yes. Trial protocols, statistical analysis plans, results documents, and FDA review documents are commonly extracted into structured fields (endpoints, arms, sample size, adverse event tables). See our PDF data extraction page for the underlying pipeline.
What about international sources?
EMA (Europe), MHRA (UK), Health Canada, PMDA (Japan), and TGA (Australia) all publish structured public data. Coverage varies by source — we scope each region as a separate project to align refresh cadence and field schema.
Output format and delivery?
CSV, Excel, JSON, or direct database load. We support PHI-free delivery only by default, with field-level provenance tagged (source URL, retrieval timestamp, schema version) for downstream audit.
This page describes our default service. It is not legal or compliance advice. Engagements that involve PHI, EHR data, or other regulated sources require additional contracting before any work begins.
