Notes for the team
- Test mode vs production.Connected to a Stedi test key, this returns sandbox responses only, and only for Stedi's approved test patients (found in the Stedi dashboard under Sandbox test data). To check real patients, swap in a production key, which is a single server-side change.
- Finding a payer ID.The Payer ID field is Stedi's tradingPartnerServiceId. Aetna is 60054. Look others up in the Stedi payer directory.
- Reading the result. Green means active coverage with benefits (co-pay, deductible, out of pocket, coinsurance). Amber means the payer rejected the lookup, with the AAA reason code shown. Open the raw response to see the full 271.
- PHI. Do not enter real patient data while on the test key. Once we move to production, the connection to Stedi runs under a signed BAA.
