    How to connect

    How to connect MedPrice AI to Claude

    The server address to paste into Claude settings:

    https://mcp.medprice.ai/mcp

    1. Open Claude (claude.ai or the desktop app).
    2. Go to Settings → Connectors.
    3. Click Add custom connector.
    4. Paste the server address copied below into Remote MCP server URL and click Add.
    5. In a chat, click + → Connectors and switch the new connector on.

    Custom connectors are available on Free, Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans (Free is limited to one). On Team and Enterprise an organization Owner adds the connector first under Organization settings → Connectors.

    Authorization

    After you click Add, a sign-in window for the service opens. Sign in with your own account and approve access. Claude never sees your password.

    How to connect MedPrice AI to ChatGPT

    The server address to paste into ChatGPT settings:

    https://mcp.medprice.ai/mcp

    1. Open ChatGPT in a browser (chatgpt.com). A Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise or Edu plan is required.
    2. Turn on developer mode once: Settings → Apps → Advanced settings → Developer mode.
    3. Open Settings → Connectors and click Create.

    Server tool list (5)

    Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.

    get_hospital_chargemaster_costLookup hospital chargemaster cost
    list_hospitalsReturns 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'.
    list_hospital_code_costsReturns 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_code_typesReturns 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.
    list_codesReturns 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.
