## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-09-28.

- **Endpoint Security**: 74/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 65/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1033 tokens (~258/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 5 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

**Unverified: 1 category.** A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: authentication we do not have, an unreachable endpoint, or not enough scan history. We only credit what we can confirm.

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (4)

### `get_appeal_rights` (~195 tokens)

Appeal rights, steps and free help for a plan type and state

Appeal rights, steps and free help for a plan type and state. Use for "what are my appeal rights in California?", "my insurer denied my claim, what can I do?" or "how do Medicare appeals work?". Returns who decides, the steps (internal appeal, external review, Medicare levels or Medicaid fair hearing), deadlines, and where to get free help, including the state insurance department. If the plan type is not known, leave it out to get the rules for most private plans

Input parameters:

- `plan_type` (string): marketplace, employer, employer_insured, employer_self_funded, medicare, medicare_advantage, part_d or medicaid. Everyday words work too, like "job", "Obamacare" or "Medi-Cal". Default: most private…
- `state` (string): US state name or two-letter code, like California or CA. Puerto Rico works too.

### `get_appeal_deadlines` (~160 tokens)

How long someone has to appeal, and how fast the plan must decide

How long someone has to appeal, and how fast the plan must decide. Use for "how long do I have to appeal?", "when is my appeal due?" or "how fast does my insurer have to answer?". With the date on the denial notice, gives an approximate file-by date. Remind the user to check the date on their own notice

Input parameters:

- `denial_date` (string): Date on the denial notice, like 2026-09-01, 09/01/2026 or September 1, 2026.
- `plan_type` (string): Same values as /v1/rights. Default: most private plans.
- `urgent` (string): yes if waiting could seriously harm the person's health.

### `explain_denial_code` (~161 tokens)

Explain the denial codes on an Explanation of Benefits

Explain the denial codes on an Explanation of Benefits. Use for "my EOB says CO-50, what does that mean?", "what is denial code PR 204?" or "what does N130 mean?". Returns each code in plain words, who usually fixes it (the provider's billing office, an appeal, or the user), whether the provider can bill the user for it (from the group code CO, PR, OA or PI), and a letter link when an appeal fits.

Input parameters:

- `code` (string, required): One to four codes from the notice, like CO-50, PR 204, 197 or N130.
- `plan_type` (string): Same values as /v1/rights. Carried into the letter link.

### `draft_appeal_letter` (~358 tokens)

Draft an appeal letter for the user to review and send

Draft an appeal letter for the user to review and send. Use for "my insurer denied my MRI as not medically necessary, help me appeal" or "write an appeal letter for an out-of-network denial". Returns a letter as plain text with [brackets] for anything not given, a checklist of what to attach (denial notice, doctor's letter of medical necessity, records), and tips. It never sends or files anything.

Input parameters:

- `claim` (string): Claim or reference number.
- `date` (string): Date of service.
- `denial_code` (string): The reason code on the notice, like CO-50 or PR-197. Picks the reason when reason is left out, and is quoted in the letter.

- `provider` (string): Hospital, clinic or provider name.
- `reason` (string): Why the claim was denied: medical_necessity, emergency (said it wasn't an emergency), experimental, out_of_network, prior_auth, coding or generic. Plain words work too. Required unless denial_code is…
- `service` (string): The care that was denied, like "MRI of the right knee".
