HHS Open Payments MCP Connector for Claude

Connect to the HHS Open Payments database to explore financial transparency in healthcare. This server allows you to query datasets, search for specific physicians or teaching hospitals, and analyze payments made by drug and device companies.

• Metadata Inspection — Fetch detailed information about specific datasets to understand the underlying data structure.
