    "description": "An API for interacting with the data provided by Ribbon Health, including information about healthcare providers,\nlocations, insurances, and more.\n\n## Price Transparency v2\n\nLocation-first negotiated rate endpoints live under `/v2/*` (separate from legacy\n`/v1/pricing/*`). Use them to:\n\n1. Look up procedures, care clusters, and carriers (`GET /v2/procedures`,\n   `/v2/care-clusters`, `/v2/carriers`)\n2. Get prices for a known location (`GET /v2/locations/{location_id}/pricing/...`)\n3. Shop by geography (`GET /v2/pricing/locations/...`)\n\n**Key differences from v1:** prices are location-scoped (not provider-first);\ncarriers use string business ids (not v1 carrier UUIDs); every v2 response uses\nthe same envelope (`parameters`, `total_count`, `page`, `page_size`, `data`);\ngeo search requires an explicit `address` or `lat`+`lng` (no silent default).\n\nSee the **Price Transparency v2** tag for full endpoint reference.\n"
