Transaction Enrollment API responses now include the originally submitted payer ID

Jan 16, 2026

We now return payer.submittedPayerIdOrAlias as an optional field in responses for the following Transaction Enrollment API endpoints:

For example, in a Retrieve Enrollment response:

{
  "payer": {
    "name": "UnitedHealthcare",       // Resolved name for the payer
    "stediPayerId": "87726",          // Resolved Stedi payer ID for the payer
    "submittedPayerIdOrAlias": "UHC", // Originally submitted payer ID
  },
  ...
}

You must pass a payer idOrAlias when creating an enrollment using the Create Enrollment endpoint. Previously, responses only returned the stediPayerId, the Stedi payer ID that the submitted payer ID or payer ID alias resolved to.

If you submitted a primary payer ID or another payer ID alias, this made it difficult to reconcile the response with the payer ID you originally provided.

Now, submittedPayerIdOrAlias returns the payer ID or payer ID alias you submitted in the original Create Enrollment request.
