The following endpoint requires provider enrollment through our platform. Refer to the platform help guides or contact Cair Support with any questions.

​
Mock Requests

To send a mock request without incurring charges, set the mockRequest parameter in the body to true. There are 4 scenarios you may test with. Refer to Mock Eligibility for the scenarios.

​
Data Richness

The response you receive will vary by payer. We parse the EDI response to the best of our ability, and the presence of an N/A in any field does not necessarily mean that the benefit is not present in the subscriber’s insurance plan.
