This endpoint uses a business identifier to retrieve autogenerated CMS-1500 Claim Form PDFs for submitted 837P professional claims.
  1. Call this endpoint with the businessId query parameter set to the claim’s correlation ID. The correlation ID is returned as the claimReference.correlationId in the synchronous response Stedi returns when you submit a professional claim.
  2. The endpoint returns an array of PDFs for all claims with the specified businessId value. PDFs are returned as a base64 encoded string.
To view a PDF, decode the base64 string and save it to a file with a .pdf extension.
If you plan to send these PDFs to payers or retain them for your records, we strongly recommend visiting CMS-1500 Claim Form PDF for information about how to structure claim submissions for optimal generation, the correct printer settings for generated PDFs, and general best practices.
