The column list in the query you posted doesn't match the column
list being returned from the function: the query is missing
provider_company between plangroup and policy_number.

Comparing column lists might be easier and less error-prone if you
align them vertically, one column per line.  Then you could view
the function's query and the calling query side-by-side and quickly
observe whether they match or not.
