Update timeline

  1. investigating Oct 01, 2026, 03:10 PM UTC

    Since approximately 5:45 PM ET on September 30, claims routed through the Waystar clearinghouse have not been delivered. Since approximately 5:35 PM ET, we have also not received Waystar response files (999 acknowledgments and 277 claim status). We have traced the issue to connectivity between Candid and Waystar and are working with Waystar to restore it. Claims sent through other clearinghouses are not affected. No data has been lost: affected claims are safely queued and will be sent automatically once connectivity is restored, so you do not need to resubmit.
