Simplify your administrative workflow with our new supercharged APIs

We’re excited to introduce a new generation of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), now available as part of the Optum Real suite within Optum AI Marketplace. Like other APIs, these are used to help you securely exchange real-time data and integrate information from multiple services into your existing workflow.

Our Optum Real APIs take it a step further by providing even more real-time connectivity and clarity at every step of the care journey. You’ll experience fewer interruptions, less manual entry and more task automation.

Get the information you need, when and where you need it

There’s a lot of data to keep track of in a health care system. It can be complicated and take up a lot of your time. Optum Real APIs change that by enabling a real-time, automated exchange of eligibility and claims data directly in your practice management system or your billing software.

Optum Real APIs help you:

Make decisions with certainty. Instantly verify patient eligibility and coverage, flag issues before claims are submitted and reduce administrative denials.
Cut administrative costs and save time. You can automate routine tasks, like eligibility checks and claim edits.
Bring real-time transparency into your workflow. Whether you're scheduling an appointment or submitting a claim, the APIs work within your existing systems to deliver the information you need — when and where you need it — in real time.
