Payer-negotiated rates parsed from a hospital's federally required machine-readable file. Without drg: a per-DRG summary (payer count, min/median/max) across every DRG in the file. With drg (digits; zero-padded automatically): the individual payer-by-payer rates for that DRG. Available for ~2,060 hospitals (prices_tool_available flag).
