Editorial interest 76/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

The site offers REST and MCP access to negotiated healthcare prices organized by health plan, provider, and billing code.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-30 issue.

For: Developers building healthcare price tools
Worth noticing: MCP setup instructions include copyable commands for Claude Code and Gemini CLI, alongside REST access.

Field notes

The homepage presents REST and MCP as two ways into the same price-data service, with an API reference and documentation linked from the front page. Its MCP instructions include OAuth sign-in and copyable commands for Claude Code and Gemini CLI. The page describes its source material as insurer-published price files, alongside Medicare and hospital data, but the extract does not detail coverage or update frequency.
