# Eligibility mock requests
When you submit the following requests to the [Real-Time Eligibility Check](/api-reference/healthcare/post-healthcare-eligibility) endpoint with a test API key, Stedi returns mock benefits data from the specified payer you can use for testing.
You can also submit these mock requests through the [New eligibility check](https://portal.stedi.com/app/healthcare/checks/create) form in the UI when **Test mode** is enabled.
Mock requests are free for testing purposes and won't incur any charges in
your Stedi account.
## Test API key
When submitting these mock requests to the API, you must use a test [Stedi API key](/api-reference/index#creating-an-api-key) for authentication. When using a test API key, you can only send the following mock requests to the endpoint. Stedi returns an error if you try to send production data with a test API key.
## API clients
You may want to use an API client to make testing and debugging easier.
We **don't recommend** using Postman for requests containing Protected Health Information (PHI) because Postman defaults to storing request history - including full request payloads - on its cloud servers. You can’t turn this feature off without impractical workarounds.
Visit [API clients](/api-reference#api-clients) for a list of recommended clients you can use instead.
## Medical - Active coverage
Request notes:
* `encounter`: Only service type code `30` is supported.
* `provider`: You can use any organization name and any NPI, as long as it passes [check digit validation](https://www.cms.gov/Regulations-and-Guidance/Administrative-Simplification/NationalProvIdentStand/Downloads/NPIcheckdigit.pdf). To generate a dummy NPI, you can use [this free tool](https://jsfiddle.net/alexdresko/cLNB6).
* `subscriber`: You must use the exact values in the test request. Other birth dates, first names, last names, member IDs, and Social Security Numbers return errors.
### Dependent
Each of these examples represent an eligibility check for a dependent. An individual qualifies as a dependent for eligibility checks when they are listed as a dependent on the subscriber's insurance plan AND the payer cannot uniquely identify them through information outside the subscriber's policy.
These example requests follow best practices for structuring eligibility checks. Specifically, all requests include the dependent's information, including their date of birth, in the `dependents` array. Some payers may allow different structures, such as sending the dependent's information in the `subscriber` object with the subscriber's member ID. However, we recommend following the guidance outlined in the [Real-Time Eligibility Check](/api-reference/healthcare/mock-requests-eligibility-checks#dependent) endpoint documentation for the most reliable results across all payers.
The way dependent information is included in the response varies by payer. Some contain the dependent's information in the `subscriber` object. Some include the actual subscriber's information in the `subscriber` object and the dependent's information in the `dependents` array.
**Aetna**
In this example, the dependent Jordan is the subscriber John's child. Jordan's information is returned in the `dependents` array in the response.

### MBI lookup for CMS checks
You must include the patient's Medicare Beneficiary Identifier (MBI) in every eligibility check you submit to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ([Payer ID: CMS](https://www.stedi.com/healthcare/network?page=0\&search=CMS\&entry=JDNSN&__hstc=181257784.360aac417a3f93a63ca63bf29197fe1f.1727971380232.1743632880282.1743697406042.288&__hssc=181257784.12.1743697406042&__hsfp=2436917072)). When patients don’t know their MBI, you can use Stedi’s eligibility APIs to perform an MBI lookup using their Social Security Number instead. Visit [MBI lookup](/healthcare/mbi-lookup#enrollment) for more information.
