Introducing the Search Payers API

May 16, 2025

You can now use the Search Payers API to programmatically search the Stedi Payer Network.

The API lets you search by the payer’s name, alias, or payer ID. The search supports fuzzy matching, so it returns close matches even if the provided payer name isn’t exact. You can further filter the results by supported transaction types, like dental claims (837D) or eligibility checks (270/271).

The following request searches for the “Blue Cross” payer name and filters for payers that support eligibility checks and real-time claim status.

curl --request GET \
  --url https://healthcare.us.stedi.com/2024-04-01/payers/search?query=Blue%20Cross&eligibilityCheck=SUPPORTED&claimStatus=SUPPORTED \
  --header 'Authorization: <api-key>'

Visit the Search Payers API docs for complete details.

We’ve also updated the Stedi Payer Network UI to use the new API. You now get consistent search results across the UI and API.
