Introducing idempotency keys for Stedi’s Claim Submission API

Stedi’s Claim Submission API now supports an Idempotency-Key request header. The header is available for the following endpoints:

• 837P Professional Claims – JSON and X12

• 837D Dental Claims – JSON and X12

• 837I Institutional Claims – JSON and X12

We strongly recommend including an idempotency key with every claim submission request.

Idempotency keys let you safely retry a failed request. If a claim submission fails mid-flight due to a network error or timeout, resend it with the same key to avoid creating a duplicate claim. You can reuse the same key for up to 24 hours after the original request.
