Medicaid Rate API

Programmatic access to Medicaid reimbursement rates across California, Florida, New York, Ohio, and Texas. 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

1

Request access

Fill out the form and we'll set up your account. Usually same-day.

2

Get your API key

We'll send you an API key. Evaluating? We offer trial keys on request.

3

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.

New York Inpatient Rates

Look up a NY Medicaid inpatient rate. Pricing is routed by service type: Acute APR-DRG (DRG × SIW per case), Exempt Psychiatric (per-diem with age, intellectual disability, and comorbidity factors + LOS scaling), and six per-diem categories (Medical Rehab, CAH, Chemical Dependency Rehab, Adult/Child Dual Diagnosis, Specialty Acute). Payer class (FFS or Managed Medicaid) selects the rate schedule.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
reference_idstringA 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. StateRates does not log, persist, or inspect this value; it is stripped from request logs and error tracking.
billing_coderequiredstringAPR-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 requiredstringNational Provider Identifier (10 digits).
state_provider_id1 requiredstringNY Medicaid Provider ID (MMIS, 8-digit). NY's state-issued billing identifier — universal across professionals and hospitals.
opcert1 requiredstringHospital-only NY operating certificate. Not all NY providers have one.
provider_name1 requiredstringHospital name (partial match, case-insensitive).
service_typestringWhat 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_codestringOptional 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.
soiintegerSeverity of Illness 1-4 (acute / psychiatric only). Defaults from billing_code suffix (e.g., '140-2' → soi=2) when present.
payer_classstringPayer 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_datestringDischarge date (MM/DD/YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD). Drives all parameter lookups (DRG weights, base rates, MMC adjustments) per NY Inpatient Billing Guidelines §2.3.1.2. Defaults to today.
length_of_stayintegerLength of stay in days. Required for psychiatric and per-diem service types; optional for acute (used only for transfer calculations).
alc_daysintegerDays 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_chargesdecimalBilled charges (acute only). Required to evaluate cost-outlier eligibility per 10 NYCRR §86-1.21.
transfer_outbooleanTrue if this hospital transferred the patient to another facility. Acute only — payment is capped at per-diem × LOS × 1.20.
age_groupstringPsychiatric 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_disabilitybooleanPsychiatric only. True if the patient has an Intellectual Disability diagnosis. Applies 1.0599 MR factor (max 1× per case).
comorbidity_categorystringPsychiatric 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).
ect_treatmentsintegerPsychiatric only. Number of electroconvulsive therapy treatments delivered during the stay.
prior_admission_within_30dbooleanPsychiatric only. True if the patient was discharged from a NY psych unit within the prior 30 days. Shifts LOS scaling per NY guidelines §2.3.1.2.

GET/oh/outpatient/rate

Ohio Outpatient Rates

Look up an Ohio Medicaid outpatient rate. Supports two methodologies, routed by code system: HCPCS codes price via fee schedule (MSRIAP for physicians/imaging, Clinical Lab schedule for lab codes); EAPG codes price per-claim for hospital outpatient (per-hospital base rate × weight + OP CCA) and ASC (statewide flat base × weight). Ohio publishes no state-specific provider ID; NPI is the only provider identifier.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
reference_idstringA 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. StateRates does not log, persist, or inspect this value; it is stripped from request logs and error tracking.
billing_coderequiredstringHCPCS code (e.g., 99213) or EAPG code (e.g., 00002).
billing_code_typestringCode system filter. Values: HCPCS, EAPG. If omitted, returns results for all matching code systems.
npi1 requiredstringNational Provider Identifier (10 digits).
provider_name1 requiredstringProvider name (partial match, case-insensitive). Returns rates for all matches.
provider_typestringStateRates provider classification. Values: HOSPITAL, PHYSICIAN, ASC, CLINICAL_LABORATORY, IMAGING_CENTER. If omitted, returns rates across all matching provider types for the code.
modifierstringModifier. Values: 26 (Professional Component), TC (Technical Component). Matched to a pre-multiplied row in the data layer; modifier_adjustment in the response carries the multiplier when one was applied. Other modifiers (e.g., 'QW' for CLIA-waived lab) match published per-modifier rows directly when present.
place_of_servicestringPlace of service (MSRIAP only; ignored for EAPG). Values: facility, non_facility. If omitted, returns the source default rate (typically non-facility).
date_of_servicestringDate of service (MM/DD/YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD). Defaults to today. Selects the fee schedule (HCPCS) or relative-weight version (EAPG) in effect on this date.

Returns

FieldTypeDescription
reference_idstringEcho of the `reference_id` from the request (null if not sent). Use this to match each result back to your source claim or account.
rate_foundbooleanWhether a rate was found.
error_messagestringError details if rate not found. Null on success.
npistringProvider NPI.
provider_namestringProvider name.
provider_typestringStateRates provider classification.
provider_type_labelstringHuman-readable provider type label.
hospital_classstringDerived facility-type classification (HOSPITAL only). Values: Critical Access, Children's, Teaching, Rural, Psychiatric, General Acute Care. Psychiatric is assigned when the hospital has a published psych per-diem rate (FSP); other hospitals fall back to peer-group bucketing.
primary_taxonomy_codestringNPPES primary taxonomy code (non-hospital providers).
primary_taxonomy_display_namestringNPPES primary taxonomy display name.
street_addressstringProvider street address.
citystringProvider city.
countystringProvider county.

billing_code_descriptionstringHuman-readable code description.
modifierstringModifier applied (e.g., '26', 'TC', 'QW').
modifier_adjustmentdecimalMultiplier applied to base_rate to derive payment_rate. Populated only when the rate is a derived modifier row (currently MSRIAP modifier 26 / TC). NULL when payment_rate is published as-is — base rates, Lab modifier rows where ODM publishes the modified rate flat (QW / 26 / TC), and EAPG. HCPCS path only.
place_of_servicestringPlace of service used (MSRIAP only).
payment_ratedecimalPayment rate in dollars.
payment_rate_typestringRate type. Values: fee_schedule, percent_of_charges, manually_priced, claim, per_diem.
calculation_methodstringHuman-readable calculation formula with actual values.
eapg_weightdecimalEAPG relative weight (Solventum 3M v3.17). EAPG path only.

op_cca_ratedecimalHospital OP Cost-Coverage Add-on per detail line. Hospital EAPG path only.
xix_op_ccrdecimalHospital XIX OP cost-to-charge ratio (reference value). Hospital EAPG path only.
base_ratedecimalSource fee-schedule rate for this code/POS before any modifier adjustment. When modifier_adjustment is populated, payment_rate = base_rate × modifier_adjustment (cent-rounded). When no adjustment was applied, base_rate equals payment_rate. HCPCS path only.
hospital_pa_advisorystringMSRIAP prior-auth advisory text. HCPCS path only.
is_manually_pricedbooleanMSRIAP sentinel: rate is determined case-by-case (BR/FP/PA/PC). payment_rate=$0.00 with explanatory message.
is_flat_ratebooleanEAPG sentinel: flat-rate EAPG paid by OAC policy not weight × base (FR sentinel). payment_rate=NULL with explanatory message.
effective_start_datedateRate period start date.

GET/oh/inpatient/rate

Ohio Inpatient Rates

Look up an Ohio Medicaid APR-DRG inpatient payment rate per SPA OH-23-0037 / OAC 5160-2-65. Standard formula: base × weight + capital × weight + Med-ED × weight + IP CCA. Discharge date drives all rate-period lookups. Edge cases: cost outlier (with total charges), transfer per-diem cap, interim cost-based payment, Medicare crossover, organ acquisition (100% of charges), and FSP psychiatric per-diem (auto-detected from hospital). Ohio publishes no state-specific provider ID; NPI is the only provider identifier.

401missing_api_keyNo Authorization header or the Bearer scheme is missing.
401invalid_api_keyKey is unknown, revoked, or past its expiry.
403state_not_enabledYour key isn't scoped to the state you called. Email support to add it.
404Endpoint path doesn't exist. Check the URL against the reference above.
422Request parsed but violated a schema rule (e.g. batch over 1000 items). See detail for field-level errors.
429token_bucket_exceededToken bucket exhausted for the current billing period, or per-key burst limit tripped (burst 429s have no JSON body). See Rate Limits.
500Our bug. Don't retry blindly — email support with the timestamp.
502API briefly unreachable (usually a deploy restart). Safe to retry after ~5s.

Rate Limits & Quotas

Two limits, both return 429:

  1. 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.
  2. Token bucket — each org gets a contract-sized token bucket that pools across every state on the key. Costs per call: 1 token per inpatient rate, 0.25 tokens per outpatient line item,0 tokens for 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.
