How to Set Up and Use Taiwan Health
Taiwan Health MCP is a self-hosted Python MCP server that exposes approximately 51 medical and health-data tools covering ICD-10 codes, TFDA drug information, LOINC laboratory tests, SNOMED CT clinical terminology, clinical guidelines, FHIR IG profiles, food nutrition data, and health supplements for the Taiwan healthcare ecosystem. It runs as a Docker stack with PostgreSQL (pgvector), Redis, and MinIO, and serves AI clients either via native MCP (streamable-HTTP) or an OpenAPI bridge. Clinicians, developers, and researchers working with Taiwanese health standards use it to query, cross-reference, and validate medical data without calling external APIs.
Prerequisites
- Docker and Docker Compose installed on the host machine
- Python 3.12+ available if running without Docker
- PostgreSQL 16 with the pgvector extension (provided automatically via Docker Compose)
- Ollama with qwen3-embedding model installed if you want semantic (vector) search (keyword fallback is available without it)
- An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Desktop (v0.6.31+) or Open WebUI
Clone the repository
Clone the Taiwan Health MCP repository to your server or development machine.
git clone https://github.com/healthymind-tech/Taiwan-Health-MCP.git
cd Taiwan-Health-MCPConfigure environment variables
Copy the example .env file and fill in the required values including database password, admin credentials, and session secret.
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env and set at minimum:
# POSTGRES_PASSWORD=<strong-password>
# ADMIN_ENABLED=true
# ADMIN_USERNAME=admin
# ADMIN_PASSWORD_HASH=sha256$<hash>
# ADMIN_SESSION_SECRET=<random-32-char-string>
# Generate a password hash:
python -c "import hashlib; print('sha256$' + hashlib.sha256(b'your-password').hexdigest())"Start the Docker stack
Launch all services (MCP server, PostgreSQL, Redis, MinIO) using Docker Compose.
docker compose up -dImport medical data via the Admin Console
Navigate to http://localhost:8000/admin and use the Tasks tab to import ICD-10-CM/PCS, LOINC, SNOMED CT, TFDA drugs, and food nutrition data. Embeddings for semantic search are generated automatically after import.
Connect your MCP client to the server
Point your MCP client at the streamable-HTTP endpoint. For Claude Desktop, add the server configuration shown below.
{
"mcpServers": {
"taiwan-health": {
"type": "http",
"url": "http://localhost:8000/mcp"
}
}

}Prompts to try
Natural-language queries that map to the server's 51 exposed tools across ICD-10, drugs, LOINC, nutrition, and FHIR.
- "What is the ICD-10 code for type 2 diabetes with kidney complications?"
- "Look up the TFDA-registered drug details for Aspirin 100mg"
- "Search LOINC codes related to HbA1c blood tests"
- "What are the clinical guidelines for managing hypertension in Taiwan?"
- "Analyse the nutritional content of a meal: 100g white rice, 150g grilled salmon, 80g broccoli"
- "Find SNOMED CT concepts related to myocardial infarction"Troubleshooting Taiwan Health
Tools show as disabled or return empty results after startup
Tools auto-enable only after their data module has been imported. Go to the Admin Console at /admin and check the Tasks tab to import the required dataset (e.g. ICD-10, LOINC, TFDA drugs). Tools will become active once the import completes.
Semantic search returns no results even after import
Semantic search requires Ollama with the qwen3-embedding model running and accessible. If Ollama is not configured, the server falls back to keyword search automatically. Check your Ollama endpoint configuration in .env.
Admin Console login fails with password hash error
Generate the hash correctly using: python -c "import hashlib; print('sha256$' + hashlib.sha256(b'your-password').hexdigest())" and paste the full output (including the sha256$ prefix) into ADMIN_PASSWORD_HASH in .env, then restart the containers.
