What a record looks like in the API response.

Sample record
{
  "resourceType": "Practitioner",
  "id": "prac-pecos-1234567890",
  "_source": "cms-pecos-or",
  "_methodology": "pecos-or/v1",
  "identifier": [{ "system": "http://hl7.org/fhir/sid/us-npi", "value": "1234567890" }]
}

Every record carries _source, _methodology, a snapshot date, and a confidence tier. These provenance fields survive export and API delivery — each fact stays chained to the federal release it came from.

Sample query

One request returns a provenance-tracked record.

cURL
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $FONTEUM_KEY" \
  "https://api.fonteum.com/fhir/r4/Practitioner?_source=ordering-referring" \
  | jq '._source, ._methodology, .meta.tag'

The response includes the FHIR resource body plus Fonteum provenance metadata on every record.
