Institutional Claims
This endpoint sends 837I (institutional) claims to payers. Visit Submit institutional claims for a full how-to guide.
- Call this endpoint with a JSON payload.
- Stedi translates your request to the X12 837 EDI format and sends it to the payer.
- The endpoint returns a response from Stedi in JSON format containing information about the claim you submitted and whether the submission was successful.
Send test claims
All claims you submit through this endpoint are sent to the payer as production claims unless you explicitly designate them as test data.
To send test claims, set the usageIndicator
field in the test claim to T
. This allows you to filter for test claims on the Transactions page in the Stedi app.
Note that you will receive a 277 Claim Acknowledgment in response to test claims, allowing you to test your workflow end to end, but you will not receive a test 835 (ERA) response.
Basic claim submission
The content of your claim submission depends on your use case and the payer’s requirements. However, a basic claim submission includes the following information in the request body:
Information | Description | |
---|---|---|
tradingPartnerServiceId | This is the Payer ID. Visit the Payer Network for a complete list. | |
submitter object | Information about the entity submitting the healthcare claim. This is an organization, such as a hospital or other treatment center. | |
receiver object | Information about the entity responsible for the payment of the claim, such as an insurance company or government agency. | |
subscriber and/or dependent objects | Information about the patient who received the medical services. Note that if a dependent has their own, unique member ID for their health plan, you should submit their information in the subscriber object and omit the dependent object from the request. You can check whether the dependent has a unique member ID by submitting an Eligibility Check to the payer for the dependent. The payer will return the member ID in the dependents.memberId field, if present. | |
claimInformation object | Information about the claim, such as the claim filing code (identifies the type of claim), claim charge amount, and place of service code. It also includes information about each individual service line included in the claim. | |
Billing provider | You must supply information about the billing provider in either the providers or billing object. This includes the provider’s NPI, name, and other information. |
Character restrictions
Don’t include the following characters in your request data: ~
, *
, :
and ^
. They are reserved for delimiters in the resulting X12 EDI transaction, and X12 doesn’t support using escape sequences to represent delimiters or special characters. Stedi returns a 400
error if you include these restricted characters in your request.
Identify service lines
A claim can contain multiple service lines. Since the payer may accept, reject, or pay a subset of those lines, you can receive an 835 response that references a patientControlNumber
, but only pertains to some of the service lines.
However, the claimInformation.serviceLines.lineItemControlNumber
serves as a unique identifier for each service line in your claim submission. This value appears in the 277CA and 835 ERA responses as the lineItemControlNumber
, allowing you to correlate these responses to specific service lines from the original claim. We strongly recommend setting the lineItemControlNumber
to a ULID or other unique identifier for each service line. We recommend using a ULID instead of a UUID because the property has a max of 30 characters.
Conditional requirements
Note that objects marked as required are required for all requests, while others are conditionally required depending on the circumstances. When you include a conditionally required object, you must include all of its required properties.
For example, you must always include the subscriber
object in your request, but you only need to include the supervising
object when the rendering provider is supervised by a physician.

2 - 80
The full name of the person or office.
60
The phone number, formatted as AAABBBCCCC, where AAA represents the area code, BBB is the telephone number prefix, and CCCC is the telephone number.

For example, you would format the phone number 123-456-7890 as 1234567890.

The principal diagnosis code for the patient. It must be a valid code from the appropriate coding system. Do not submit the decimal for ICD codes; the decimal is implied. Also, do not submit IDC-10 header codes. Header codes exist to group related codes and are not valid for billing. These header codes can change with each new version of ICD-10, so we recommend reviewing your diagnosis codes every year to ensure that they aren't classified as header codes in the most recent version. To determine whether a code is a header code, you can also search the Value Set Authority Center. If the 'Header' property is set, the code is a header code and you shouldn't use it in claim submissions.

Either a single date of service or the beginning of a range of service dates, formatted as YYYYMMDD. If a range is provided, the end date should be provided in serviceDateEnd
. This property is required on outpatient service lines where a drug is not being billed and the Statement Covers Period is greater than one day. It's also required when a drug is being billed and the payer's adjudication is known to be impacted by the drug duration or the date the prescription was written. In cases where a drug is being billed on a service line, this property may be used to indicate the date the prescription was written (or otherwise communicated by the prescriber if not written). It may also be used to indicate the beginning of the duration for which the drug supply will be used by the patient. The difference in dates, including both the begin and end dates, are the days supply of the drug. Example: 20000101-20000107 (1/1/00 to 1/7/00) is used for a 7 day supply where the first day of the drug used by the patient is 1/1/00. In the event a drug is administered on less than a daily basis (for example, every other day) the date range would include the entire period during which the drug was supplied, including the last day the drug was used. Example: 20000101-20000108 (1/1/00 to 1/8/00) is used for an 8 days supply where the prescription is written for Q48 (every 48 hours), four doses of the drug are dispensed and the first dose is used on 1/1/00.
