Submission Sandbox Test Responses

Obtaining Sandbox Credentials 🆕

To access and test our APIs, create a sandbox account.

Receiver/Payer ID Test Responses

To assist testing your integration with the Prior Authorization Submission API, we have provided a number of test responses. To receive these mock responses, simply send your request body with a Clearinghouse ID.

For X12 requests, set a specific value in the ISA:08 element.
For JSON requests, set a specific value in the senderId and umClearingHouseId fields (same value in both fields).

📘

Important

The sandbox returns a canned response based on the senderId/umClearingHouseId. As such, these responses will not match the information in the request (i.e. different patients, services, etc. will be present in the response).

Below are the umClearingHouseId and their corresponding test responses. If a umClearingHouseId is sent that does not match one of the values below, an Unable to Respond at Current Time/senderId Unavailable response will be returned.
