Amerihealth Caritas Plans Pricing
AmeriHealth Caritas exposes HL7 FHIR R4 APIs (Patient Access, Provider Directory, Drug Formulary) to satisfy the CMS Interoperability and Patient Access final rule (CMS-9115-F). The APIs are free to registered third-party applications: access is governed by SMART on FHIR / OAuth 2.0, member consent, and a CMS-aligned attestation rather than a commercial price tier. There is no list price, no metered rate card, and no paid subscription. Member health-plan products (Medicaid, CHIP, D-SNP, LTSS, Marketplace) are sold through state Medicaid agencies, CMS, and state Marketplaces and are out of scope for an API pricing surface.
Amerihealth Caritas Plans Pricing is the machine-readable pricing-plan profile for AmeriHealth Caritas on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Plans specification.
It defines 4 plans, covering freemium tiers, with named plans including Developer Sandbox, CMS Patient Access (Production), Provider Directory (Public), Drug Formulary (Public).
Tagged areas include FHIR, Healthcare, Health Insurance, Medicaid, and Interoperability.
