What is a tradingPartnerServiceId?

TradingPartnerServiceID value is also known as payer ID (a number you will find on your insurance card). See API examples under each product.

• The request for Eligibility needs the tradingpartnerServiceID to be the Realtime Payer ID found on the ConnectCenter Payer List (see the following snapshot).
• While the request for Claims needs the tradingPartnerServiceID to be the CPID found on the ConnectCenter (see the following snapshot).

The column on Payer Tools >> Payer Search shows the Payer ID (one that is on your insurance card), which is a 5-digit value, such as "aetna" or "87226" for United Healthcare. Enter this value in the the search box to 'cross-walk' and find the Realtime Payer ID or CPID. In essence, all the three values pertain to which payer the request is sent to.
