To access the FHIR-compliant Provider Directory API, you must first request obtain a public access token from our token service at
https://providers.bridgespanhealth.com/api/healthsparq-public-login-service/v1/tokenEach requested token will expire after 15 minutes. No authentication is required because this is a public token. This is a deviation from the JOT methodology because we do not use a client and secret; it is simply passing a public token request. There is no need to pass the token as an authenticated bearer token. It needs to be passed as a subject token inside the header section of your call.
