Are there any websites making the "Transparency in coverage" data available?
The problem is that its all released in files in JSON code. The file from the above link has links to 2374 other JSON files that are compressed into multipart JSON.GZ files and some of these are 25 gigabytes and larger. Literally terabytes of data.

Analyzing multi-gigabyte JSON files locally
Neither of these are implemented via HL7 or FHIR. CMS has defined a new "machine readable format" to implement the regulation: https://github.com/CMSgov/price-transparency-guide
- Dataset needed!!!!! Well I've worked on some datasets that I took from Kaggle. No satisfaction. I request you to provide an excellent Dataset to perform Exploratory Data Analysis.

Help hosting trillions of rows of new health insurance public price data
CMS was very particular in the format they required payers to use. You can even check out the spec yourself on GitHub. Unfortunately their requirements don’t make a lot of sense from a data engineering standpoint.

I analyzed 1835 hospital price lists so you didn't have to
The health insurance companies are now required to publish this and in fact the rule went into effect July 1 2022.
Look up price transparency by CMS (the data will be published in this format: https://github.com/CMSgov/price-transparency-guide)
Note: the data being published by payors in machine readable format (MRF) is MASSIVE - terrabytes of data. Example: https://transparency-in-coverage.uhc.com/

Hospitals and Insurers Didn’t Want You to See These Prices. Here’s Why
