Communication
Every other NHCX exchange is provider-initiated and expects a matching response.
APIs
| Call | Called by | Method and path | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Payer: send a communication request | Payer | POST /v1/communication/request | Payer pushes a Task plus Communication bundle to a provider mid-claim: TAT alerts, wallet or policy changes, grievances or extra-information requests. |
| Provider: acknowledge the communication | Provider | POST /v1/communication/on_request | Provider returns the acknowledgement Task bundle for a payer communication, echoing the reason code and correlation id so the payer can close the loop. |
