US Healthcare API and MCP server: the first step to price transparency

I couldn't get past a Cloudflare verification page to inspect endpoints or sample data, so the promise is there but I need to see the OpenAPI surface, sample responses, and data sources to judge whether it's transformative or just a thin wrapper around public datasets.
