## 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 stratalize-hospital-pharmacy-spend-benchmark-27b00c61
```

Example prompt: Pull pharmacy spend benchmarks for a 250-bed hospital in California that is enrolled in 340B, with 85,000 annual patient days and $18 million in annual pharmacy spend — I want to see how our drug cost per patient day compares to peers and what our 340B savings opportunity looks like.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need CMS-grounded, peer-comparable pharmacy spend benchmarks for a specific hospital — especially when 340B enrollment status is relevant, when building a pharmacy cost reduction strategy, or when you need a cryptographically verifiable benchmark for audit or compliance purposes. Prefer over general healthcare cost databases when drug cost per adjusted patient day and 340B savings opportunity are the specific metrics needed.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required parameters (state or bed_size) returns 400 error
- Unknown or invalid state code returns no benchmark data
- Very small or unusual bed sizes outside benchmark range may return sparse peer groups
- annual_pharmacy_spend or annual_patient_days values that are implausibly large or zero may produce unreliable percentiles
- Payment failure via x402 protocol returns 402 Payment Required
