Ribbon Health Rate Limits

The H1 API (formerly the Ribbon Health API) publishes a per-endpoint rate-limit table. Most search and list endpoints are capped at 1,000 calls per minute; single-resource lookups by NPI or UUID allow 5,000 calls per minute; the deductible eligibility endpoint has a stricter hourly quota. Exceeding a limit returns HTTP 429 with the code `rate_limit_exceeded`.

Ribbon Health Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Ribbon Health on the APIs.io network, in the API Commons Rate Limits shape.

It captures 9 rate-limit definitions.

Tagged areas include Healthcare, Provider Directory, Insurance, Clinical Data, and Care Navigation.
