Overview

Optum Real Claim Pre-Check API


With Optum Real Claim Pre-Check API, providers can complete a series of validation steps to improve the efficiency of claim processing and reduce the risk of invalid claims before a claim is submitted.

Through a single, centralized API, providers can validate claim data directly within their existing workflow, including:

  • X12 claim validation (HIPAA)
  • Membership and coverage eligibility for the date of service
  • Coordination of Benefits (COB) including primacy and coverage details for patient
  • Prior Authorization (PA) requirements and status
  • Adherence to payment and medical policies
