About us

Built by people who understand the data.

ProviderSignal was born from a simple frustration: the data dental supply reps, DSO biz-dev teams, and brokers need to track territory changes and acquisition signals is scattered across dozens of government websites, buried in PDFs, and months out of date by the time anyone compiles it.

Our story

We built the tool we wished existed.

A single platform that unifies NPI records, state board licenses, CMS reimbursement data, malpractice history, and government grant opportunities into one searchable intelligence layer. Refreshed weekly with daily license alerts. No manual research.

ProviderSignal is a product of Braman Analytics LLC, founded by Kevin Braman, a data analyst who spent years working with healthcare data and saw the gap between what's publicly available and what's actually usable.

We're starting with dental and expanding state by state. The architecture is built for nationwide scale from day one. Today, 40 states + DC carry full license enrichment beyond the federal baseline (board status, expiration, discipline, anesthesia and sedation permits, graduation data). The remaining states still surface every NPI in the platform via NPPES and grow into deep enrichment as new ingest pipelines ship.

What we believe

Four things we're stubborn about.

01

Source of truth, not source of rumor

Every data point traces back to a named government agency, licensed commercial dataset, or internally-computed signal with documented methodology. We don't scrape review sites. We don't buy third-party 'intent data.' If we can't attribute it, we don't surface it.

02

Refresh cadence over volume

A stale record is worse than no record. License-status changes propagate within 24 hours of detection (state boards refresh weekly, Texas and Florida daily). Medicare claims annually (that's as fast as CMS releases them). Census on the ACS 5-year rolling average. Our value isn't having more data than anyone, it's having fresher data than anyone.

03

Aggregate privacy, individual accuracy

NPDB malpractice data is federally anonymized, so we surface it only at state-year aggregate level. Individual-level discipline comes exclusively from state dental boards, where records are public by law. We never combine anonymous aggregates with individual records to re-identify practitioners.

04

Open methodology

The scoring algorithms, retirement risk calculation, and DSO detection logic are fully documented in-product. Every score shows its factor breakdown on hover. Every flag shows why it fired. Analysts can audit any record back to raw source fields in three clicks.
