Medical Bill Parser n8n Integration
Turn medical bills into structured data inside your n8n workflows — self-hosted or cloud — and route it anywhere. No custom node required. Built for patient advocates, billing teams, and healthcare finance who automate.
How to connect
- 1
Trigger the workflow
Start with any n8n trigger — an Email (IMAP) node for new attachments, a Google Drive / Dropbox node for new files, a Webhook node, or a Schedule node for batch runs.
- 2
Add an HTTP Request node → POST
Set the URL to https://medicalbillparser.com/api/extract, method POST, Authentication → Header Auth with your API key (Authorization: Bearer …), body type "Form-Data / multipart", and attach the medical bill as the "file" field (or send the binary from the previous node).
- 3
Parse the JSON response
n8n receives clean JSON (Provider & patient name, Service dates, Procedure/CPT codes, and more). Reference fields with expressions like {{ $json.data.provider_name }}.
- 4
Route it downstream
Add a Google Sheets, Postgres, Airtable, NocoDB, or Slack node and map the extracted fields — one workflow, every medical bill handled automatically.

FAQ
Does Medical Bill Parser work with n8n?
Yes. Use n8n's built-in HTTP Request node to POST a medical bill to our /api/extract endpoint with your API key and receive structured JSON. No custom node needed — it works on both self-hosted and cloud n8n.
Is n8n a good fit if I self-host?
It's ideal. n8n is open-source and self-hostable, so your medical bills flow through infrastructure you control, and only the extraction call leaves your network — a common requirement for teams handling sensitive documents.
How do I pass the file to the HTTP Request node?
Use multipart form-data with a "file" field. If a prior node (Email, Drive) produced a binary, reference that binary property in the HTTP Request node's body; otherwise upload the file directly.
Where do I get my API key?
Sign up free (no credit card), open your dashboard, and copy your key. Your first 3 medical bills are free.
