8 of 8 tools

Documented tools (8)

From project documentation. A server handshake does not verify each tool’s description or behavior.

children

, nametorxcui, and rxcuitondc can return large sets and paginate — a product can carry thousands of package NDCs; pass a response's nextCursor back as cursor (with an optional limit) to walk the full set

includeHierarchy

attaches each code's parent and immediate children

medcode_browse_hierarchy

Walk a system's hierarchy for discovery without a search term.

medcode_check_code

Validate a code's existence, currency, and billability, with a whyNot for non-billable/terminated cases.

medcode_get_code

Decode 1–50 codes to their official descriptions. Auto-detects the system per code; partial-success found / notFound.

medcode_list_systems

List bundled systems with release identifiers, effective dates, and code counts (provenance).

medcode_map_codes

Crosswalk a code within its hierarchy (parents/children) or a drug across RxNorm (name ↔ RXCUI, NDC ↔ RXCUI, RXCUI → ingredients/brands).

medcode_search_codes

Full-text search over official descriptions — go from a clinical description to the code.
