Medicaid Rate API
Programmatic access to Medicaid reimbursement rates across six states. Look up outpatient fee schedules, inpatient DRG payments, and provider data in real time.
Why the API
Automate
Build rate lookups into your everyday pricing workflows.
Scale
Batch-price hundreds of claims in one call. Most responses in under one second.
Integrate
RESTful JSON. Any language, any platform.
Getting Started
Request access
Fill out the form and we'll set up your account. Usually same-day.
Get your API key
We'll send you an API key. Evaluating? We offer trial keys on request.
Start querying
Hit the endpoints. Rates back in milliseconds.
Authentication
All requests need a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Keys are scoped to specific states; a request against a state not on your key returns 403 state_not_enabled. Don't have a key? Request access.
Base URL: https://api.staterates.health/api/v1
The key must go in the Authorization header, not the URL; we reject ?api_key=… with 400 api_key_in_query so keys never end up in access logs or browser history.
Follow best practices to keep your keys safe. Don't embed secret API keys in source code or client-side applications. Instead, use your server platform's secrets vault to provide keys to your server-side applications. If your platform doesn't offer a secrets vault, set your keys in environment variables.

}/ny/inpatient/rateNew York Inpatient Claims
Look up a NY Medicaid inpatient rate. Pricing is routed by service type: acute care via APR-DRG, exempt psychiatric on a per-diem with age, intellectual-disability, and comorbidity factors, and six per-diem categories (Medical Rehab, CAH, Chemical Dependency Rehab, Adult and Child Dual Diagnosis, and Specialty Acute). Payer class (FFS or Managed Medicaid) selects the rate schedule.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
reference_id | string | A correlation ID (max 128 chars) echoed back unchanged in the response, so you can match each rate result to the source claim or account in your system. **Do NOT pass PHI in this field.** Use a hashed value, UUID, or per-batch synthetic ID; never raw account numbers, MRNs, or claim numbers from your billing or EHR system. State Rates does not log, persist, or inspect this value; it is stripped from request logs and error tracking. |
billing_coderequired | string | APR-DRG code (e.g. '140', '140-2'). Required for acute and psychiatric service types; optional for per-diem service types (CAH, med_rehab, etc.) where pricing is hospital-level and DRG isn't used. |
npi1 required | string | National Provider Identifier (10 digits). |
state_provider_id1 required | string | NY Medicaid Provider ID (MMIS, 8-digit). NY's state-issued billing identifier (universal across professionals and hospitals). |
opcert1 required | string | Hospital-only NY operating certificate. Not all NY providers have one. |
provider_name1 required | string | Hospital name (partial match, case-insensitive). |
service_type | string | What category of inpatient care was delivered. Values: acute, psychiatric, specialty_acute, cah, med_rehab, chem_dep_rehab, dual_diag_adult, dual_diag_child. Optional; defaults to acute, or can be inferred from rate_code or APR-DRG. |
rate_code | string | Optional 4-digit code from UB-04 Value Code 24. An alternate way to specify Service Type; e.g., 2946/2960 = acute, 2852 = psychiatric, 2853 = med_rehab, 2999 = cah, 4608 = dual_diag_adult, 4607 = dual_diag_child. |
payer_class | string | Payer class. Values: FFS = traditional fee-for-service Medicaid claims. MMC = Managed Medicaid (insurer-administered) claims. MMC rates often include additional add-ons (Safety Net SDP + H+H ACR) auto-applied for qualifying hospitals on acute and psychiatric. Defaults to FFS. |
discharge_date | string | Discharge date (MM/DD/YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD). Selects the rate period. Defaults to today. |
length_of_stay | integer | Length of stay in days. Required for psychiatric and per-diem service types; optional for acute (used only for transfer calculations). |
alc_days | integer | Days within the stay where the patient was medically stable enough to be discharged but couldn't be (e.g., awaiting nursing home placement). ALC days pay at the ALC per-diem rate. Not supported for Adult or Child Dual Diagnosis Psychiatric: NY doesn't publish an ALC per-diem for those service types, so supplying alc_days > 0 returns rate_found=false with an explanatory error. |
gross_charges | decimal | Billed charges (acute only). Required to evaluate cost-outlier eligibility. |
transfer_out | boolean | True if this hospital transferred the patient to another facility. Acute only. Payment is rebuilt as a daily rate (the DRG payment divided by the DRG's average length of stay, times a 120% adjustment factor, plus the hospital's capital per diem) applied to each non-ALC day, then capped at what a full discharge would have paid. The 120% factor does not apply when the DRG's average length of stay is 1, and transfer-only DRGs (580/581) are paid the full DRG rate. Per 10 NYCRR §86-1.21. |
age_group | string | Psychiatric only. Values: ADULT, CHILD. CHILD applies when the patient is age 17 or under (adds 1.3597 multiplier to operating rate). Defaults to ADULT. |
has_intellectual_disability | boolean | Psychiatric only. True if the patient has an Intellectual Disability diagnosis. Applies 1.0599 MR factor (max 1× per case). |
comorbidity_category | string | Psychiatric only. Highest-matching comorbidity from NY's 18-category list (acute_coronary_syndrome, arrhythmia, cancers, cardio_respiratory_failure, cellulitis, chronic_kidney_disease, chronic_obstructive_lung_disease, diabetes, gi_hemorrhage, heart_failure, liver_disease, metabolic_disturbance, neurological_disease, opportunistic_infection, pancreas_disease, pneumonia, sepsis, severe_hematologic_disorder). |

Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
reference_id | string | A correlation ID (max 128 chars) echoed back unchanged in the response, so you can match each rate result to the source claim or account in your system. **Do NOT pass PHI in this field.** Use a hashed value, UUID, or per-batch synthetic ID; never raw account numbers, MRNs, or claim numbers from your billing or EHR system. State Rates does not log, persist, or inspect this value; it is stripped from request logs and error tracking. |
billing_coderequired | string | HCPCS code (e.g., 99213) or EAPG code (e.g., 00002). |

}/tx/outpatient/claimTexas Outpatient Claims
Price a whole Texas Medicaid institutional outpatient claim (UB-04, type of bill 131) in one request: claim header plus up to 99 lines, with optional per-line service dates for claims spanning multiple days. Identify the billing hospital by NPI or CCN. Applies Texas claims-level outpatient reimbursement rules per the Texas Medicaid Provider Procedures Manual (TMPPM), 1 Tex. Admin. Code §355.8061, and Texas HHS billing guidance, and screens every claim against the CMS Medicaid NCCI procedure-to-procedure and MUE unit-limit edit files. Returns per-line allowed amounts, the fee-for-service claim total, CHIRP managed care adjusted totals, and informational flags. Returns expected reimbursement for a clean, payable claim.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
npi1 required | string | Billing hospital NPI (10 digits). Provide npi or ccn. |
ccn1 required | string | CMS Certification Number (6 characters, e.g. 450035). Provide npi or ccn. |
date_of_servicerequired | string | Statement date of service (MM/DD/YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD). Drives the rate and provider period used. |
emergency | boolean | True for emergency/unscheduled claims. Emergency surgery prices itemized (cost-reimbursed) instead of the day-surgery global fee; false applies the non-emergent ER differential to ER visit lines. Defaults to false. |
child_patient | boolean | True if patient is under 21 years of age. Defaults to false (adult). |
type_of_bill | string | UB-04 type of bill. Only 131 (hospital outpatient) is supported; omit or pass 131. Nonpatient lab (141) and Medicare crossover claims are rejected. |
reference_id | string | A correlation ID (max 128 chars) echoed back unchanged in the response, so you can match each rate result to the source claim or account in your system. **Do NOT pass PHI in this field.** Use a hashed value, UUID, or per-batch synthetic ID; never raw account numbers, MRNs, or claim numbers from your billing or EHR system. State Rates does not log, persist, or inspect this value; it is stripped from request logs and error tracking. |
linesrequired | array | Claim lines (1–99). Each line: revenue_code (required; 3 or 4 digits), hcpcs (required for revenue codes Texas marks procedure-code-required: lab, imaging, ER, therapy), modifier, units (defaults to 1), billed_charges (required for cost-reimbursed lines; enables the lesser-of rule on fee schedule lines), and service_date (optional; defaults to the header date_of_service). On claims spanning multiple days, set service_date per line so the same-day checks (NCCI code pairs, daily unit limits, panel consolidation, ER bundling) group lines by the day the service actually occurred. Rates and the provider period always follow the header date_of_service. |
Returns
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
reference_id | string | Echo of the `reference_id` from the request (null if not sent). Use this to match each result back to your source claim or account. |
claim_priced | boolean | False when the claim could not be priced at all (hospital not found, no cost-report data). |
error_message | string | Explanation when claim_priced is false. |
npi | string | Billing hospital NPI (echoed). |
child_patient_used | boolean | Echo of child_patient. True when submitted as true; null otherwise. |
provider_name | string | Hospital name. |
ccn | string | CMS Certification Number. |
hospital_class | string | Hospital classification. Values: Urban, Rural, Childrens, STATE OWNED TEACHING. |
area_type | string | urban or rural (derived from hospital_class). |
high_volume_provider | boolean | High volume Medicaid provider. |
pricing_path | string | How the claim priced. Values: day_surgery (global payment: the highest-rated surgical procedure pays, other lines bundle to $0), itemized (each line priced independently and summed). |
claim_total | decimal | Fee-for-service expected reimbursement for the claim (sum of line allowed amounts). |
total_billed_charges | decimal | Sum of line billed charges, when provided. |
total_lines | integer | Number of lines submitted. |
lines_priced | integer | Number of lines with an allowed amount (including $0 bundled lines). |
lines | array | Per-line results, in submitted order. Each line: rate_found, pricing_bucket (asc_hasc_fee_schedule, clinical_lab_fee_schedule, imaging_fee_schedule, percent_of_charges, bundled, manually_priced, not_a_benefit, not_separately_payable, not_payable_to_facility, not_payable, or fee_schedule as a rare fallback), bundled, allowed_amount, hcpcs_description, calculation_method, ofl_determination, advisories, and echoes of the inputs including the line's service_date. ofl_determination carries the same payability class as the single-code endpoint (contracted, not_payable, no_determination, or null), and is unaffected by bundling rules, which change what a line pays rather than the code's payability. advisories carries the same {code, message} shape as the single-code endpoint, and is null on lines a claim-level rule repriced (bundling, ER/observation absorption, the non-emergent ER cap), where the flag and calculation_method explain the amount instead. |
claim_calculation | string | How the claim total was assembled: pricing path, bundling, reductions, and total, with actual values. |
rules_applied | array | Machine-readable claim-rule events in the order applied (e.g., day_surgery_global, obs_absorbs_er, non_emergent_er_cap, lesser_of). claim_calculation is rendered from exactly these events. |
chirp_adjustments | object | CHIRP managed care adjusted claim totals per program (STAR, STAR_PLUS, STAR_KIDS), each with the rate increase, multiplier, adjusted total, and the arithmetic. Models the fee-for-service floor. Individual MCO contract terms can pay differently. |
flags | array | Informational flags, each {code, line, message}: a machine-readable code, the claim line it refers to (null when claim-level), and a plain-English explanation with the Texas Medicaid manual citation. Flags never change the returned pricing. Every code is listed in the flag legend below. |
effective_start_date | date | Rate period start date. |
effective_end_date | date | Rate period end date. Null if currently active. |
Flag legend
Flags are informational. They never change the returned pricing. Applied-rule flags accompany amounts the pricing already reflects; denial-risk flags mark amounts an adjudicator may pay differently; line-handling flags explain lines that could not be priced as submitted.
ER_ABSORBED_BY_OBSERVATION | Observation of 8+ hours absorbs the ER visit; ER lines pay $0. |
BRIEF_OBSERVATION_NOT_REIMBURSED | Observation under 8 hours folds into the ER visit; observation lines pay $0. |
ER_INJECTION_ADMIN_BUNDLED | Injection/infusion administration is included in the ER charge; pays $0. |
CRITICAL_CARE_NOT_PAYABLE_TO_FACILITY | Critical care visit codes pay the treating physician, not the hospital. |
NON_EMERGENT_ER_REDUCTION | Non-emergent ER visit reduced: flat fee, or 55% of allowed at rural hospitals. |
HIGH_VOLUME_UPLIFT_APPLIED | Designated high-volume provider; day-surgery payment increased 5.2%. |
DEVICE_BUNDLED | Device bundled into the day-surgery global payment. |
DEVICE_PAID_SEPARATELY | Device with its own published fee; paid separately from the day-surgery global. |
NOT_A_BENEFIT | Revenue code is not a Texas Medicaid benefit; pays $0. |
INCOMPLETE_SURGERY_MODIFIER | Modifier 73/74: the state suspends these claims for manual review; priced at the full rate. |
NCCI_PTP_CONFLICT | Billed with its NCCI column-1 partner code on the same day; the component line denies on adjudication. |
MUE_UNITS_EXCEEDED | Units exceed the Medicaid daily maximum for this code. |
MULTICHANNEL_LAB_PANEL_SUSPECTED | Same-day automated lab panels are consolidated to a combined fee. |
PACKAGED_SERVICE_EXCLUSION_RISK | Priced under cost reimbursement, but payers commonly package or exclude this service. |
OBSERVATION_OVER_48H | Observation beyond 48 total hours is denied. |
OBS_761_CONFLICT | Revenue code 761 denies when billed the same day as 760, 762, or 769. |
EMTALA_451_STANDALONE | EMTALA screening pays as a stand-alone service; other lines are not separately reimbursed. |
OBS_CONCURRENT_ACTIVE_MONITORING | Observation may overlap a procedure whose active monitoring is already included. |
RECOVERY_OBS_OVERLAP | Recovery room hours and observation hours cannot be billed for the same time. |
IIP_E0782_E0783_MUTEX | Only one implantable infusion pump code is payable per day. |
TMHP_CODE_PAIR_EDIT | A Texas code-pair rule denies or bundles this line with another code on the claim. |
RURAL_ER_SCOPE_UNCERTAIN | The rural ER reduction was applied to the visit line only; its exact scope is unconfirmed. |
INVALID_REVENUE_CODE | Not a valid Texas outpatient hospital revenue code; line skipped, claim still prices. |
MISSING_REQUIRED_HCPCS | This revenue code requires a procedure code on the line; line skipped, claim still prices. |
MANUALLY_PRICED_LINE | No published fee: the state prices this code manually; excluded from the claim total. |
PROFESSIONAL_MODIFIER_IGNORED | Modifier 26/TC ignored; facilities do not bill professional/technical splits. |

| 403 | state_not_enabled | Your key isn't scoped to the state you called. Email support to add it. |
| 404 | — | Endpoint path doesn't exist. Check the URL against the reference above. |
| 422 | — | Request parsed but violated a schema rule (e.g. batch over 1000 items). See detail for field-level errors. |
| 429 | token_bucket_exceeded | Token bucket exhausted for the current billing period, or per-key burst limit tripped (burst 429s have no JSON body). See Rate Limits. |
| 500 | — | Our bug. Don't retry blindly. Email support with the timestamp. |
| 502 | — | API briefly unreachable (usually a deploy restart). Safe to retry after ~5s. |

}Rate Limits & Quotas
Two limits, both return 429:
- Short-term throttle: 1 request per second per key, with bursts up to 30. Go over and you'll get a 429; wait a second and try again.
- Token bucket: each org gets a contract-sized token bucket that pools across every state on the key. Costs per call:
1 tokenper inpatient rate,0.25 tokensper outpatient line item,1 tokenper whole outpatient claim,0 tokensfor provider search. A 500-IP-claim batch costs 500 tokens; the same shape of OP batch costs 125. When the bucket runs out you'll get a 429 with a JSON body showing exactly where you stand.
Every metered 2xx and 429 response includes these headers so you can monitor headroom:
X-RateLimit-Reset is the timestamp your current bucket expires. Provider search responses carry no rate-limit headers (the call is free).
If a batch would push you over the bucket, the entire batch is rejected; no partial fulfillment. The requested / remaining / resets_at fields let you split the batch and retry precisely.
X-RateLimit-Limit: 1000 X-RateLimit-Remaining: 873.75 X-RateLimit-Reset: 2026-07-01T00:00:00Z
