## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh

Example prompt: I got a hospital bill for $8,500 for an appendectomy at St. Mary's Medical Center — can you pull up a negotiation script, the Medicare benchmark rate I should anchor to, and any charity-care options I might qualify for?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when a patient has already received a medical bill and needs actionable guidance to negotiate it down — specifically when you need Medicare-anchored benchmarks, word-for-word negotiation scripts, and charity-care pathways rather than just price estimates or rights information.

## Known failure modes

- Unrecognized procedure code returns empty benchmark data
- Hospital not found in database returns no charity-care options
- Missing billed amount may produce generic rather than tailored scripts
- Out-of-network scenarios may have limited Medicare comparison data
