HLT-008 — Synthetic Healthcare Claims Dataset (Sample Preview)
A free, schema-identical preview of the full HLT-008 commercial product from XpertSystems.ai.
A fully synthetic healthcare claims dataset spanning members → providers → medical claims → pharmacy claims → adherence — modeling commercial, Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, and self-insured payer populations with X12 837/835-compliant claim structure, CMS HCC risk adjustment, CMS CCW chronic conditions, HEDIS quality measures, X12 CARC denial codes, NHCAA-aligned fraud patterns, and Pharmacy Quality Alliance PDC/MPR adherence metrics.
⚠️ PRIVACY & SYNTHETIC NATURE Every record in this dataset is 100% synthetic. No real claim records, no PHI, no real member identifiers, no real NPIs. Population-level distributions match published CMS / NHIS / NHCAA / Pharmacy Quality Alliance benchmark sources but the claims are computationally generated.
What's in this sample
| File | Rows | Cols | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
members.csv |
500 | 44 | Member master — demographics, payer/plan type, HCC risk score, 21+ CCW chronic conditions, dual-eligible/LIS flags, enrollment window |
providers.csv |
150 | 7 | Provider directory — NPI, specialty, NUCC taxonomy, network status |
medical_claims.csv |
~12,800 | 54 | Medical claim lines — ICD-10-CM (primary + 4 secondary), CPT/HCPCS, MS-DRG/MDC, modifiers, denial codes, HEDIS measure flags, fraud labels |
pharmacy_claims.csv |
~18,300 | 35 | Pharmacy claim lines — NDC-11, RxNorm therapeutic class, ATC code, BIN/PCN, formulary tier, AWP/NADAC pricing, DIR fees |
adherence.csv |
~10,600 | 7 | PDC + MPR by member × therapeutic class (Pharmacy Quality Alliance methodology) |
Total: ~8.1 MB across 6 files. Note: This is the largest healthcare sample in the catalog because claims data has natural fan-out (500 members → 30K+ claims over 3 years).

Limitations & honest disclosures
- Sample is preview-only. 500 members × 3 years × ~30K claims is enough to demonstrate schema and calibration, but is not statistically sufficient for serious fraud detection model training (would need ≥100K members for reliable detection of rare fraud patterns) or rare condition analysis. Use the full product for serious work.
- Sample is on the larger side (8 MB). Claims data has natural fan-out — even at 500 members, you get ~30K claim records. This is the largest healthcare sample in the catalog. The full product scales linearly with member count.
- Adherence PDC denominator is the full observation window, not actual therapy initiation. The generator computes PDC as
total_days_supply / 1096_days(3-year observation window), rather than the clinically-canonical "days from first fill to obs end." This produces lower PDC values (~0.1) than the typical 0.7-0.8 reported in real PDC analyses. The field is structurally correct (between 0 and 1, deterministic), just calibrated against the observation window. For clinically-typical PDC values, compute it astotal_days_supply / (obs_end - first_fill_date)from the raw fills, which is a one-line post-processing step. - Fraud labels are statistically assigned, not adjudicated.
fraud_label = 1flags follow a 5% Bernoulli draw with pattern types assigned by category-rule mapping. They represent realistic fraud taxonomy proportions but are NOT validated against real fraud detection adjudication. - ICD-10 coding uses 50 most common codes, not the full ~70K codeset. Realistic for general analytics but not exhaustive — rare-disease analysis requires the full HLT-008 product with extended code coverage.
- NDC codes are placeholder 11-digit strings, not real FDA Orange Book entries.
drug_name_generic/drug_name_brand/therapeutic_class/atc_codeare populated; the NDC-11 string itself is synthetic. Use therapeutic class + ATC for drug-level analysis. - NPIs are synthetic 10-digit strings. Provider directory has realistic specialty + NUCC taxonomy + network status but the NPI numbers themselves are not real CMS NPPES numbers.
- State distribution focuses on top-10 US states. Member distribution is concentrated in CA/TX/FL/NY/PA/IL/OH/GA/NC/MI; all 50 states are not represented at uniform frequency.
- No real CMS BSA / DRG payment rates.
paid_amountis calibrated to overall paid-to-billed ratios (~0.63), not specific DRG reimbursement schedules. The full product can be tuned to specific year IPPS/OPPS rates. - Synthetic, not derived from real claims data. Distributions match published CMS / NHIS / NHCAA references but do NOT reflect any specific real payer or member cohort.
