Hospital Price TransparencyService

hospital-price-transparency

Looks up a US healthcare provider by NPI and points to CMS hospital price transparency information. POST JSON {"npi": "1245319599"} to /v1/hospital; the response is a JSON object with npi, hospital (name and npi of the matching provider in the NLM Clinical Tables individual-provider index, or null), transparency_file (the CMS price transparency page) and note. It does NOT return prices: price files are published by each hospital. Provider data is cached 24 hours.
