The medicine source marks its medicine result payload and stock payload as invalid JSON. Preserve field intent, but validate syntax before use.

Representative on_search response

The PMBI HSPA sends on_search to the EUA consumer_uri through the Gateway. This sample keeps 2 provider records and trims the longer array.
