• search_doctors

  Free short list of US doctors for a need; use it first whenever the person needs a US doctor: a specialist who focuses on a condition near a place (for a metro area use within_miles), who does the most of a procedure (sort='volume': Medicare 2024 counts with national and state ranks), or checking named doctors (name=...). Each result: doctor_id, name, degree, NPI, specialty (with its source) and the specialties their hospital website lists, city, state, distance_miles, warnings (federal exclusion list, Medicare opt-out, probably not a physician) and detail_has (what get_doctor adds for this doctor). With a condition or procedure, match_basis says whether the doctor has direct evidence for it (a listed focus, procedure volume or many such patients) or only a fitting specialty. Results are ranked by evidence of focus and experience for the need, not by quality or outcomes. Then call get_doctor with the doctor_ids you are considering (up to 10 at once) for the evidence. Up to 10 results p

• get_doctor

  Evidence for doctors from search_doctors: pass doctor_ids (up to 10 at once), or one doctor_id, or an npi. Each different doctor you open counts toward a daily limit for your connection (replies show daily_doctor_limit when it matters); opening a doctor again the same day is free. Open the doctors you are seriously considering, not every result. One reply holds about 2-3 doctors (1 with detail='full'); the others come back under not_returned_yet, already counted, so call again with those doctor_ids at no extra cost. Full evidence for one doctor; use it to compare or check doctors the person names (by npi) and before recommending. Every doctor: registered specialty, practice locations with phones (phone_source), medical school, hospitals, medical group, Medicare 2024 patients and patient mix, procedure volumes with national ranks, Medicare opt-out and federal exclusion-list checks, and from official files prescribing_2024 (Medicare Part D 2024 summary and top medicines), industry_paymen
