partd_feed_prescribing
Which prescribers just entered a drug class this Medicare Part D year — e.g. new GLP-1 prescribers in PY2024? Bulk feed over CMS Part D Prescribers by Provider and Drug, aggregated per NPI to a drug class and differenced PY2023 → PY2024: direction=new_entrant returns new-to-class prescribers, de_adopter those whose class volume fell. Flat rows, cursor-paginated up to 1000/page, by drug_class, specialty, and state. Observational public Part D records — never a clinical recommendation. [price: $0.05/row]
