Introducing test mode for clearinghouse transactions
Mar 4, 2025
Eligibility checks
Test mode provides a separate test environment where you can simulate transactions in your Stedi account without PHI/PII and without sending any data to payers.
In test mode, you can submit mock real-time eligibility checks and Stedi sends back a realistic benefits response so you know what kinds of data to expect in production. You can send mock requests for a variety of well-known payers, including:
Aetna
Cigna
UnitedHealthcare
National Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)
Many more - Visit Eligibility mock requests for a complete list
After you submit a mock eligibility check, you can review all of the request and response details in the Stedi portal. This includes a user-friendly benefits view designed to help you quickly understand the patient’s active coverage and payment responsibilities.
To access test mode in your account, toggle Test mode to ON. Visit the test mode docs for more details.
