Compliance-grade provenance, not data marketing.
Audit Pack is the export-tier deliverable within Fonteum.Most data vendors say "we're accurate" and offer an NDA. Fonteum is the opposite: a per-dataset, per-field, versioned compliance artifact a buyer can attach to their internal audit response. Methodology is public. Reproducibility is documented. Limitations are explicit. PDF + JSON downloads are free.
What every Audit Pack contains
- Versioned methodology. Semver-like (vYYYY.MM.N). Diff per version, when next is expected.
- Per-field provenance map. Source, source URL, refresh cadence, confidence score, field-specific limitations.
- Reproducibility statement. Exact public-source steps to regenerate the dataset from scratch — buyers can rerun and reconcile.
- Limitations stack. CMS / NPPES / Census published caveats preserved verbatim. We don't silently strip caveats.
- Compliance Q&A. 5-7 of the most common audit / procurement questions, pre-answered with source links.
- Downloadable artifacts. PDF (versioned, timestamped) + JSON (structured for compliance-tool ingestion).
- Customer-scoped option. Pilot / Standard / Enterprise customers receive Audit Packs scoped to their delivery cadence and contracted dataset list.

Provenance contract
Every value is wrapped in a provenance cell: { value, source, source_url, dataset_id, snapshot_date, methodology_version, last_checked, confidence_score, data_availability, data_availability_reason? }. Missing data surfaces explicitly via data_availability values like pending_refresh (Phase-1 derivation), aggregate_only (per-citation rows not materialized), or facility_level_not_ingested (state-rollup only). No fabrication. No interpolation. POS QA failure (CCN missing from POS) → 404 with the POS snapshot date.
Methodology versioning + delta log
methodology_version is pinned per cell to v2026.05.0 for the Sprint 1 export. Pass ?include_delta=true to receive field_change_log entries from the Sprint 1 foundation Postgres migration; entries surface (ccn, field_name, old_value, new_value, snapshot_date_old, snapshot_date_new) tuples once consecutive snapshots have been diffed. Empty array is the honest answer when no diff has been computed yet.

Pilot tier (1 Audit Pack per contracted dataset, per quarter), Standard tier (monthly), and Enterprise tier (per-delivery, scope-specific) all include customer-scoped Audit Packs delivered alongside the data. Methodology version is pinned to the snapshot you received; rollback to a prior version is documented in the change history.
Compliance posture
We don’t sell ranking and don’t accept payment to move a provider up the list. For final hire decisions, verify licensing, insurance, and references directly with the applicable licensing or credentialing body.
No bulk-licensing source family is currently ingested for this vertical. Hire-time checking still routes through the body named above.
