Public surface / Payer Provider Directory APIs
CHRISTUS Health Plan Provider Directory API
This endpoint could not be reached from any vantage on this run, so nothing about what it publishes was observed.
Observed surface

- Vantage agreement
- answered HTTP 404 from 3 of 3 vantages but returned no usable document: the endpoint is running and refusing this request, which is not the same as being unreachable: HTTP 404
What each vantage saw
| Vantage | Result | What it saw | Condition |
|---|---|---|---|
github-actions/macos-latest | not reached | HTTP 404 | HTTP 404, not_found |
github-actions/ubuntu-latest | not reached | HTTP 404 | HTTP 404, not_found |
github-actions/windows-latest | not reached | HTTP 404 | HTTP 404, not_found |
Vantages on one network are one network’s view sampled several times. A rule applied to that network’s address space reaches every one of them at once and reads exactly like agreement.
Interpretation
A grade describes two public discovery documents at one point in time. It does not inspect patient data, authenticated behavior, or clinical quality.

Findings
- No answer: /metadata answered HTTP 404 from 3 of 3 vantages but returned no usable document: the endpoint is running and refusing this request, which is not the same as being unreachable: HTTP 404 (observed 2026-10-03)R1Spec ↗
- No answer: latency not measured: no vantage was answered (observed 2026-10-03)R2Spec ↗
Observed since 2026-08-19; no changes to declared capability recorded.
Declared app-to-server access
What the endpoint's own documents declare about app-to-server access, observed on this run. Nothing here was requested or exercised, and none of it is graded. An absent field is reported as absent, not as a refusal: a document that does not mention a field has not said anything about it.

Registry provenance
How this entry was verified
Listed on the organization's own publication of this base URL, not on a retrieved conformance document: base URL printed verbatim on CHRISTUS Health Plan's own site, under the literal heading 'Base FHIR Provider Directory URL', on a page the plan's interoperability section links to (page footer: last updated 2026-06-24). The host is the vendor's; attribution to CHRISTUS rests on the plan printing this exact string on its own domain. The plan publishes no Patient Access base URL: that section names a different vendor and links off-site to the vendor's documentation (recorded 2026-08-19). Published at https://www.christushealthplan.org/privacy-and-patient-rights/interoperability/healthsparq-fhir-api. On the verification date this probe observed: HTTP 404 to a GET of /metadata. The same page describes a 'public token' flow for this directory - POST an insurer code and brand code to a public token URL, then pass the result as a Subject-Token header - so the surface CMS requires to be reachable without authentication is reachable only after a token exchange, and its conformance document is not reachable at all from here. No later re-check is recorded, so the date above is the last time anyone checked this entry against the live endpoint.
