1upHealth

1upHealth is a US healthcare data interoperability company, founded in 2017 and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, that operates an HL7 FHIR-first health data platform for claims and clinical data acquisition, exchange, and compute. Built on a lakehouse architecture, the platform lets health plans, providers, and digital health developers ingest, normalize, store, and query patient and member data as FHIR, and ships modular solutions aligned to US federal interoperability mandates - Patient Access, Provider Access, Payer-to-Payer Data Exchange, Provider Directory, Formulary, and Electronic Prior Authorization (CMS Interoperability & Prior Authorization, CMS-0057-F). 1upHealth runs a managed, HIPAA-compliant FHIR REST API cloud server exposing FHIR R4 (4.0.1), STU3 (3.0.2), and DSTU2 (1.0.2) endpoints, each publishing a live CapabilityStatement, secured with SMART-on-FHIR OAuth 2.0. The company is HITRUST, SOC 2, and HIPAA aligned. Home market is the United States. Developer documentation is public at docs.1up.health, while provisioning API credentials and the developer console require an account (gated self-serve / partner onboarding).

agent ready

Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles 1upHealth the way a machine reads it — 16 machine-readable artifacts across 10 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — 1upHealth scores 54.3/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 52/100 (agent ready). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile 1upHealth

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for 1upHealth. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

APIs 10

Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

MCP Servers 1

Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

Event Specifications 1

Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.

AsyncAPI definitions for this provider's event-driven and streaming APIs.

Security Posture 3

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

Scopes 1

OAuth scopes are the vocabulary of least-privilege access. Profiling them shows exactly what an integration — or an agent acting on a user's behalf — is allowed to do.
