Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check MedPrice AI every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 12

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

code
get_code_price_distribution
Returns the distribution of every hospital's price for a code_type/code, computed server-side: min/p10/q1/median/q3/p90/max, standard deviation, a histogram, and the real hospital nearest each percentile. Use this instead of paging through list_hospital_code_costs when you want to know how prices spread across hospitals (e.g. "is $12k high for MS-DRG 788?" - pass reference_price to get the number of hospitals priced below it). All figures are in terms of the chosen statistic (default: each hospital's average price).
get_code_provider_price_distribution
Distribution (min/p10/q1/median/q3/p90/max, std dev, histogram, nearest hospital per percentile) of one figure per hospital for a code, never blending billing classes. Exactly one shape is accepted: all_terms=true with no filter, or all_terms omitted with a filter naming billing_class, methodology and setting (use *_UNSPECIFIED for 'not filed'). Counterpart to get_code_price_distribution. Backed by the hospital-prices serving snapshot; fails with UNAVAILABLE until the server has opened one.
list_code_provider_hospitals
Each hospital's charges for a (code_type, code), one row per billing class, methodology and setting (or one row per hospital with all_terms=true), paginated. The billing-class-aware counterpart to list_hospital_code_costs, good for 'which hospital is cheapest for X'. Defaults/caps page_size at 500; includes total_count and hospital_count. Backed by the hospital-prices serving snapshot; fails with UNAVAILABLE until the server has opened one.
list_code_types
Returns every distinct code_type (e.g. CPT, MS-DRG) with catalogued cost data, along with each type's distinct code count and total hospital reports. Unpaginated. Use this to discover which code systems have data before drilling into list_codes.
hospital
get_hospital_chargemaster_cost
Lookup hospital chargemaster cost
get_hospital_provider_code_costs
Returns one hospital's own charges for a (code_type, code), one entry per billing class, methodology and setting (never blended), plus an all_terms figure over all of them. Unlike get_hospital_chargemaster_cost, billing classes are not mixed into one figure. Pass revision_id to answer for a past filing. Backed by the hospital-prices serving snapshot; fails with UNAVAILABLE until the server has opened one.
list_hospital_code_costs
Returns cost stats for every hospital with a matching chargemaster entry for a code_type/code. Use this instead of calling get_hospital_chargemaster_cost once per hospital when comparing prices for the same procedure across hospitals (e.g. "which hospital has the cheapest MS-DRG 652?"). Defaults to returning every matching hospital (currently at most a few hundred) in one call. If the response's next_page_token is non-empty, the result set was truncated: call this tool again passing that exact value as page_token to get the next page, and keep doing so until next_page_token is empty - do not stop after one page and conclude a hospital has no data for this code. The response's total_count field (total across all pages) can be compared against how many results you've accumulated so far as a completeness check.
list_hospital_provider_codes
Lists the codes one hospital reports on its latest (or a given) revision, as list_codes does, each with that hospital's own all-terms sample counts. Paginated; supports query, sort and code_type like list_codes. Backed by the hospital-prices serving snapshot; fails with UNAVAILABLE until the server has opened one.
batch
batch_get_hospital_chargemaster_cost
Looks up cost stats for several (code_type, code) pairs at one hospital (identified by hospital_id) in a single call - the batch counterpart to get_hospital_chargemaster_cost. Use this instead of calling get_hospital_chargemaster_cost once per code when pricing a fixed set of codes at one hospital (e.g. cross-linking a curated list of procedures on a hospital's page). Capped at 100 codes per call; a request over that is rejected with INVALID_ARGUMENT rather than silently truncated.
batch_get_hospital_provider_code_costs
Batch counterpart to get_hospital_provider_code_costs: one hospital's provider charges for 1 to 100 codes in a single call, results in request order. A code the hospital doesn't charge is an entry with no costs, not an error. Backed by the hospital-prices serving snapshot; fails with UNAVAILABLE until the server has opened one.
codes
list_codes
Returns every distinct code catalogued under a given code_type, paginated, with each code's raw chargemaster description and the number of hospitals reporting it. Use this to discover which codes exist under a code system (e.g. all CPT codes) before looking up prices with get_hospital_chargemaster_cost or list_hospital_code_costs. Pass query to text-search codes/descriptions instead of listing a whole code_type. Pass hospital_id to restrict results to codes that one hospital actually reports.
hospitals
list_hospitals
Returns the hospitals supported by the medprice.ai API, with their hospital_id (opaque handle), EIN, name, structured_locations (addresses with geocoded coordinates where available), last_updated_on, and revision history (with per-revision has_payer_data, revision_id, and added_at - when medprice itself ingested that revision, as opposed to revision_date's source-file-reported update date). Defaults to returning the entire registry (currently a few hundred hospitals) in one call. If the response's next_page_token is non-empty, the result set was truncated: call this tool again passing that exact value as page_token to get the next page, and keep doing so until next_page_token is empty - do not stop after one page and conclude the list is complete. The response's total_count field (total across all pages) can be compared against how many hospitals you've accumulated so far as a completeness check, e.g. before answering questions like 'does medprice.ai cover any hospitals in Iowa'.

MedPrice AI — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can MedPrice AI do?
It exposes 12 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: batch_get_hospital_chargemaster_cost, batch_get_hospital_provider_code_costs, get_code_price_distribution, get_code_provider_price_distribution, get_hospital_chargemaster_cost, get_hospital_provider_code_costs and 6 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
What is MedPrice AI mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around code, hospital and batch. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is MedPrice AI working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 362 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect MedPrice AI?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does MedPrice AI need an API key?
No. MedPrice AI completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 12 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is MedPrice AI?
It answers our handshake in 362 ms on average, which is faster than 37% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is MedPrice AI open source?
We cannot say either way: written in TypeScript, 0 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
