ClaimRev Developer Portal
A REST API for the US healthcare claims lifecycle: submit X12 837 claims, run real-time eligibility and claim-status checks, retrieve payer remittance (835 ERAs), and create secondary (COB) claims — all over JSON.
What you can do today
- Submit 837P / I / D claims as raw EDI, or submit professional claims as JSON and let ClaimRev build the EDI for you
- Run real-time eligibility (270 / 271) with no prior patient setup — pass patient and payer info inline, get the 271 synchronously
- Ping payers for real-time claim status (276 / 277) when a claim has gone quiet and you need to know whether the payer actually has it
- Retrieve ERAs as structured JSON — search payment-advice headers, fetch one in full, drill into per-claim service-line breakdowns, export to CSV
- Build secondary claims (COB) derived from a primary claim's matched 835 — adjudication data carries forward automatically
- Replay inbound EDI — the same upload endpoint accepts raw 835s, so you can backfill historical remits and feed analytics
What makes integration smoother
- JSON in, JSON and raw EDI back. Eligibility and claim-status responses include both the parsed structured fields and the raw 271 / 277 EDI in one payload — no separate fetch, no translation library required.
- Credentials in the portal. Once ClaimRev provisions your account, retrieve your client id and secret yourself from the Client Connect menu in the portal — no back-and-forth to get the API credentials. One client id per account.
- Deterministic test data. The test environment returns predictable mock results based on subscriber name patterns, so you can build a full integration-test suite without any real PHI. See the SharpRevenue Testing Guide.
- Two B2C environments. Test (
testapi.claimrev.com) and production (api.claimrev.com), each with its own credentials and isolated data.
Who this is for
- EMRs and practice-management systems integrating claim submission and status tracking into clinical workflows
- Billing service providers managing claims for many practices through a single integration
- Healthtech apps that need claims-lifecycle primitives without writing X12 EDI from scratch
