Frequently asked questions about the HealthData.gov (HHS Open Data) MCP Server
How do I find a specific dataset about 'Medicare'?
Use the get_catalog tool and provide 'Medicare' in the q parameter. This will return a list of relevant datasets along with their unique identifiers (dataset_id).
Can I filter results to only show data from a specific state?
Yes! When using query_dataset, use the $where parameter with a SoQL filter like state='NY'. You can also use $select to pick specific columns.
Is an API key required to access this data?
No, the data is public. However, providing a HEALTHDATA_APP_TOKEN is recommended for higher rate limits if you plan to perform many queries.
