specialty

Parameter specifying the specialty, a specific focus of a provider by patient population, disease, skill or philosophy.

Usability Options:

• Selected specialty parameter options may be leveraged in the CareQuery API as
  • A string: specialty = "chiropractor"
  • A list of strings for OR logic: specialty = ["chiropractor", "hospitalist"]
  • List of lists of strings for AND logic: specialty = [["chiropractor"], ["hospitalist"]]

Help within CareQuery API:

Python

# import package
from care_query.care_query import CareQuery

# instantiate and connect
cq = CareQuery(email = "your-email", 
               token = "your-api-token")

# search parameter options available 
print(cq.glossary.list_options(parameter = "specialty"))
