Stedi

Stedi is a healthcare clearinghouse and revenue cycle management service built around APIs. It handles real-time and batch eligibility checks through its portal or API, as well as professional, institutional, and dental claims, status checks, acknowledgments, and electronic remittance advice. Its EDI platform can create and deliver transactions in one API request, with transforms, webhooks, retries, rate limits, and separate environments. Stedi Apps offer prebuilt connections to revenue cycle, practice management, and EHR systems, which users can browse and install from account settings. Stedi says it connects with more than 3,500 U.S. healthcare payers, spanning Medicare, Medicaid, and medical and dental payers. It lists HIPAA compliance, HITRUST certification, SOC 2 compliance, role-based access, and multi-factor authentication. The free Sandbox includes mock eligibility checks and test API keys, but not test-claim submission through API or SFTP. Pay-as-you-go has no monthly minimum, setup fee, per-provider fee, or per-payer fee; transaction charges vary by transaction type and monthly volume.
