What you can do

Take complete proxy control over your hospital Back-Office, accelerating financial throughput securely with Optum Healthcare APIs:

  • Submit Medical Claims: Safely construct X12 837P (Professional) or 837I (Institutional) payloads dispatching bills directly to UnitedHealthcare for payment.
  • Check Claim Sent Status: Automatically intercept Pended, Denied, or Approved medical bills utilizing the EDI 276/277 framework natively.
  • Extract ERA Remittances: Reconcile your banking accounts effortlessly by downloading Electronic Remittance Advices (ERA 835) securely.

How it works

  1. High Security & Compliance: Engineered entirely to handle Back-Office finances (Claims and Billing). This architecture deliberately excludes Patient Front-Desk actions protecting clinical workflows.
  2. Engage OAuth Protocol: Insert substituting your financial CLIENT_ID securely within the runtime module to authorize payloads.
  3. Deploy: Offload overwhelming billing disputes using AI.

Who is this for?

Specifically built for Hospital Billing Departments, FinTech Operators, and Medical Accounting Agencies.
