Create Claim

Creating and submitting an out-of-network vision claim

The claim object contains all the information required to send a claim to an insurer:

• insurer
• patient details
• primary member details (can be same as patient details)
• list of services

During claim submission, the API validates the claim payload against known insurer requirements and will reject claims that we know will be rejected by the insurer. However, this does not guarantee the opposite; a claim accepted by the API can still be rejected by the insurer.

Insurers can change their claim requirements without notifying us. When this happens, as soon as we understand the new requirements, we will update the validation rules and inform you. It is advisable to be prepared to adopt the updated rules as quickly as possible.
