Going to take a few hours to finish the AI queries, but I project an estimated 50,000 National Provider Identifiers potentially associated with Somalians. That's a lot of health care.
That subset will then be targeted for deeper extraction to identify websites, dollars, employees, practice address analysis, and so forth.

So far, no Somalian-identified NPIs are on the LEIE database. (still a long way to process all 750K unique names, I'm about 10% through, still projected to identify 50K potentially Somalian-associated NPIs at the current rate). This is ridiculous.

@wcdispatch lol, totally legit healthcare provider: healingtouchhc.com
Let's do some spot check-ins while waiting for the run to finish. Here's the very first hit, Satti Home Health Care. What's actually there: a nail salon.
Another Yelp review shows the address updated recently to 9801 Prairie Ave Highland, IN 46322. What's actually there: definitely not Satti.
And turns out she's been under investigation for fraud.

@wcdispatch I found this interesting ... manifesto - he does appear to be legit otherwise: filedn.com/lCRqY8u7RgXS76…
Still running this! It’s more like 1-2 days rather than a few hours because of rate limits. 730K unique names compressed into 73K queries. I plan on building out the pipeline to process and analyze partial results, so targeting a partial release tomorrow. I’m expecting to narrow this down to about 5K-10K priority targets in the end - going to be very conservative about whom I publish. That’s still a lot.
