Sure. I did something like that with our insurance data. Did a quick folium visualization. You can start from here:

https://www.dolthub.com/repositories/dolthub/hospital-prices...

A limitation of our dataset is it excludes percentage-based contracts. So those won't show up.

Anyways, if you have the hospital NPI you want, you can look up all of its dollar-amount negotiated rates in this table. You can link that to the `hospital` table, geocode however you want, and make a map of the different rates. Note, however, that the insurance data published here is kind of a mess and, I think, contains many many mistakes (originating in the source data.)

BTW, I'm not sure if this insurance-derived hospital data exists anywhere else. I believe it doesn't.
