## 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
zero fetch --capability clearcarepulse-us-medical-bill-rights-checker-ca09e20f
```

Example prompt: I got an emergency room bill for $3,800 from an out-of-network provider at an in-network hospital — can you check whether I'm protected under the No Surprises Act and tell me my rights, any deadlines I need to know about, and whether the hospital has to offer financial assistance?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when a patient or advocate needs authoritative, citation-backed determination of US medical bill rights without uploading documents — especially for No Surprises Act balance billing disputes, good-faith estimate challenges, nonprofit hospital charity care, ACA internal appeals, or Medicare redeterminations. Prefer over general legal chatbots because it returns exact CFR citations and computed deadline math with no LLM hallucination risk.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient scenario detail provided — endpoint requires enough quiz-style input to determine applicable rights
- Scenario falls outside US jurisdiction — only US federal and applicable state law covered
- Edge case not covered by cited regulations — endpoint returns honest 'no applicable protection found' rather than fabricating coverage
- Network timeout or service unavailability returns standard HTTP error

## How this service works

US medical-bill rights check, quiz-first (no documents): No Surprises Act protection (45 CFR 149 incl. the never-waivable §149.420(b) list), good-faith-estimate disputes ($400/120-day rules), nonprofit-hospital financial assistance + collection shields (26 CFR 1.501(r), 2026 FPL math), ACA appeal deadlines (180-day/4-month windows computed), Medicare MSN redetermination. Citations + deadline math, honest no's. No LLM.

## Output

Returns applicable patient rights with exact regulatory citations (e.g., 45 CFR 149.420(b), 26 CFR 1.501(r)), computed deadlines (e.g., 120-day dispute window, 180-day ACA appeal window), eligibility determinations for financial assistance using 2026 FPL math, protection status under Never-Waivable provisions, and honest assessments of what protections do and do not apply — no hallucinated claims, no LLM-generated guesses.
