Stedi x Anatomy: Turn paper EOBs into 835 ERAs

May 28, 2025

Products

To get paid, healthcare providers submit an 837 claim to their patient’s insurer. The payer processes the claim and sends back an 835 Electronic Remittance Advice (ERA). That ERA tells you what got paid, what got denied, and why.

Today, most providers and payers submit claims and receive ERAs this way – all electronically. But not every payer sends ERAs. Some still mail EOBs – explanations of benefits – on paper.

An EOB contains the same information as an ERA… just on dead trees. Providers with digital workflows have to build a separate process to open mail, scan or read documents, and manually key in payment data. It’s full of delays, errors, and extra costs.

Turn every EOB into an 835 with Anatomy

We want to make remittance paper optional. To do that, Stedi has partnered with Anatomy, a modern healthcare lockbox and document conversion service, to help you convert paper EOBs into standard 835s. Providers and billing companies can redirect paper EOBs to a PO Box managed by Anatomy – or upload PDFs directly using Anatomy’s UI. Anatomy converts each document into a standard 835.

Anatomy then securely sends the 835s to Stedi on your behalf. In Stedi, you can enroll to receive 835s from Anatomy just like you would if they were a payer. Once enrolled, you’ll get your ERAs as usual – using the 835 ERA Report API or the from-stedi directory of your Stedi SFTP connection. You can even set up webhooks to get notified when new ERAs are available.

If you're already using Stedi, you likely already have this set up. You just need to contract with Anatomy and then enroll with Anatomy in Stedi. The best part? We do all the enrollment work for you as part of our streamlined process.

Anatomy is now listed as a supported payer in the Stedi Payer Network. If you have a contract with Anatomy and are already using Stedi, it takes just minutes to add Anatomy and start receiving ERA transactions.

If you’re new to Stedi, making remits painless is just one part of what we do. When you sign up, you’ll get access to 3,393+ payers, modern APIs, dev-friendly docs, and legendary support. We promise it’ll be the best clearinghouse experience you’ve ever had.
