Operations
| Operation | What it does | Unit |
|---|---|---|
lookup | Edge live-tick (pre-call entitlement check) for hank-ppman. Priced at 0 so it never double-charges. | call |
policy.applicability | One applicability narrowing (the applicable_policies MCP tool): which policies apply to a payer/state/line-of-business/procedure, each with a typed basis. | call |
policy.changes | One change-feed query (the policy_changes MCP tool): what changed for a payer/topic in a date window, with typed change kinds. | call |
policy.document | One full policy-document fetch (the fetch_document MCP tool / document views): returns the complete source document for a citation, so it prices like a policy.lookup. | call |
policy.lookup | Payer-policy lookup, the billable hank-ppman operation. Billed per call (unit_count = calls). | call |
policy.resolve_payer | One payer-identity resolution (resolve_payer + payer_suggest MCP tools): partial insurance-identity fields resolved to the true top-level payer and corporate chain, the RCM find-my-payer operation. | call |
policy.suggest | Typeahead suggestions (the topic_suggest MCP tool). 0-priced: pure attribution + rate-limit visibility, the pt.lookup model, a 0-priced row still moves the rate meter. MUST stay 0. | call |
pt.lookup | Price-transparency lookup. Priced at 0, attribution only, not billed. | call |
