About the Dataset

The CMS Data Feeds Dataset is a comprehensive collection of all current and future CMS data feeds available on cms.data.gov. This dataset transforms each feed into a view, aligning all feed file attributes and casting them to appropriate datatypes. The views are automatically updated when new feed files arrive, and new views are included as CMS publishes new data feeds.

As of January 2026, the dataset encompasses 232 feeds and 3,042 feed files.
