Frequently asked questions
Collective Health scores F on the API Report Card. Marketing references a data intelligence layer and APIs, but there is no public developer portal, API reference, OAuth documentation, or sandbox. Integration runs through the BD-gated Partner Collective program, and eligibility data moves via EDI 834 files and point-to-point HRIS connections.
Without a usable official API, teams fall back on manual exports, file drops, or one-off vendor integrations. The other option is an unofficial API layer like Supergood that automates the authenticated web app directly.
Collective Health is an independent, technology-led third-party administrator (TPA) for self-funded U.S. employers.
Vertical: Enterprise HR, specifically health benefits administration / TPA services for self-funded employers. Employers use Collective Health to run their self-funded medical/dental/vision/pharmacy plan: load eligibility from HRIS/payroll, adjudicate claims through the platform, pay providers, generate ACA/regulatory reporting, fund stop-loss through Sun Life and others, and surface a single member portal/app (MyCollective) that consolidates plan information, deductibles, ID cards, claims status, and access to 200+ point solutions (Hinge Health, Omada, Livongo/Teladoc, Carrot, Lyra, Spring Health, Maven, virtual primary care, etc.).
7/10.

Founded in 2013 in San Francisco (HQ at 45 Fremont Street, with prior San Mateo office). Co-founded by Ali Diab and Dr. Rajaie Batniji.
Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
Yes. Supergood maintains an unofficial Collective Health API and MCP server so AI agents and internal tools can read and write Collective Health data. See the Collective Health integration docs at supergood.ai/docs/collective-health-api.
