Tools as reported by the server

• search_cpt_codes
  Canonical code-lookup tool for this server. Search Loa's CPT/HCPCS index using exact codes, clinical terms, or consumer phrases. Use this first when the user does not already know the CPT code, before calling pricing tools.
• search_providers
  Search public CMS NPI Registry data for clinicians and healthcare organizations by specialty, name, or location. Use returned provenance to understand the registry source and scope. Use this for provider lookup, not pricing.
• get_pricing_estimate
  Quick cash-price ballpark for one or more CPT codes, using the median cash price across hospitals in the state (from zip_code) or nationally. priceRange is the typical range (25th to 75th percentile of hospitals). Codes without enough data return insufficient_data and are listed in missingCodes; the
• get_market_pricing
  Preferred benchmark pricing tool. Returns hospital-level market statistics for CPT codes from Loa's published hospital price-transparency data: cash/self-pay prices, list prices (gross charges before discounts), overall insurer-negotiated rates, and rates for the most common insurers. Each hospital
• search_hospitals
  Search Loa's hospital directory by name or location and return hospital IDs plus address details. Use the returned hospital_ids with get_hospital_pricing to fetch source-labeled Published MRF and reviewed overlay prices.
• get_hospital_pricing
  Hospital-specific pricing tool for source-labeled Loa runtime data. Returns source-labeled Published MRF prices and Loa Verified Provider Price overlays for CPT codes. cash_price is the cash/self-pay price, list_price is the gross charge before discounts (most patients pay less), and insurance_price
• compare_local_prices
  Compare hospitals near a ZIP code for one procedure code, ranked by price (or distance) only. answer gives the lowest cash price in the radius, the lowest rate for the named insurer, a cash-or-insurance verdict, the next question to ask the user, and a Loa search link; lead with it. answer prices ar
• search_entities
  Search Loa runtime hospital and provider entity pages by name or state. Use this before get_entity_prices when the user names a hospital or provider but does not know the exact Loa slug.
• get_entity_prices
  Return source-labeled prices for a Loa hospital or provider entity slug using the shared resolver. Use search_entities first if the slug is unknown. Results include provenance and explicit unavailable rows for requested CPT codes with no current price.
• get_entity_profile
  Return one Loa hospital or provider entity profile by exact slug or entity_pages.id. Includes profile-field provenance so agents can distinguish source-file fields from Loa-reviewed overrides.
• explain_price_sources
  Explain the source labels, provenance, confidence, and caveats behind Loa prices for one hospital or provider entity. Use this when an agent needs to tell a user why prices are MRF-published, Loa-reviewed, estimated, or unavailable.
• submit_entity_update_request
  Submit a profile, listing, or price correction for Loa review without requiring a provider portal. This is the only mutating provider/entity tool. It requires OAuth, captures submitter and source evidence, records linked-provider status when available, and never changes public data until Loa approve
