# Introduction

The **HealthSherpa Medicare Partner API** enables agencies and partners to integrate their CRM systems with HealthSherpa’s Medicare platform.

This API currently supports:

* **Creating** new Contacts in the HealthSherpa system
* **Updating** existing Contact information
* **Keeping your CRM in sync** with HealthSherpa’s contact database

Each Contact is associated with a specific agent within your agency, ensuring proper attribution and access control.

The fields for the Contact cover basic demographic info, contact info, and eligibility info.

The API uses standard JSON for data exchange and returns clear, structured error messages to help you maintain data integrity.
