National Healthcare Practitioner Malpractice Data

This is a sample of malpractice claims from the National Healthcare Practitioner Data Bank. There is information about payment amounts and the specific malpractice reason - cause for lawsuit, outcome of lawsuit, payment amount, as well as consequences of the malpractice in question (ex. death). There is also geolocation data at the city (which seems sparse) and state level. Furthermore, there is practitioner licence field - was it a dentist, RN, etc.
