3.  HIPAA is the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996. A federal law that specifies the types of measures required to protect the security and privacy of personally identifiable health information. WHY HIPAA  Reduces administrative burden and cost for providers and payers  Creates a national standard for electronic transactions  Increases speed of financial transactions resulting in faster payment for services  Simplifies the exchange of information and reduces paperwork  Provides a more complete picture of healthcare and improves quality  Improves privacy and security of healthcare information What does HIPAA stands for

4.  The transfer of structured data, by agreed message standards, from one computer system to another without human intervention or interference is called EDI (Electronic Data Interchange)  EDI is governed by standards released by ASC X12 (The Accredited Standards Committee). Each release contains set of message types like invoice, purchase order, healthcare claim, etc called Transaction. Each message type has specific number assigned to it instead of name. For example: an invoice is 810, purchase order is 850 and healthcare claim is 837. What is EDI (Electronic Data Interchange)

5.  A "transaction" is an electronic business document.  Every new release contains new version number. Version number examples: 4010, 4020, 4030, 5010, 5030, etc. Major releases start with new first number. For example: 4010 is one of the major releases, so is 5010. However 4020 is minor release. Minor releases contain minor changes or improvements over major releases.  validate EDI X12 data you need to know transaction number (message numeric name) and release version number. Both of those numbers are inside the file. Cont (EDI)

7.  Standard EDI X12 format data is text file separated by segment, element and sub-element delimiters (separators). You can open EDI X12 files using any text editor even standard Windows notepad.exe utility. Carriage return and line feed are not required characters by EDI X12 standard.  Each segment is displayed on the separate line. In this example each segment ends with ~ (tilde) or * (star) or | pipe sign. That is so called segment separator or segment delimiter. Each segment starts with 2-3 letter code that identifies it.

8.  Some segments form EDI X12 envelope are common to all EDI X12 files and message types. Those segments are ISA, GS, ST, SE, GE, IEA. This set contains important information about trading partners (like Sender Id, Receiver Id, etc.). It also contains interchange, transaction group and transaction control numbers, counts, transmission dates and times, and more. (Cont EDI)

11. Electronic transactions provide significant benefits compared with paper transactions: EDI streamlines transaction processing formats are pre-edited to reduce common errors in claims data entry. This reduces the re-entry of the same data. It also reduces delays caused by scanning and re-keying. EDI also reduces operating costs and increases staff productivity. Improves cash forecasting & cash flow. Faster submission of accurate claims results in quicker payments and reduced receivables. Provides positive acknowledgement of transaction receipt Eliminates the cost of handling and storing paper documents EDI Benefits

19. TERMINOLOGY  PROVIDER - In a generic sense, the provider is the entity that originally submitted the claim/encounter. A provider may also have provided or participated in some aspect of the health care service described in the transaction. Specific types of providers are identified in this implementation guide (e.g., billing provider, referring provider).  SUBSCRIBER - The subscriber is the person whose name is listed in the health insurance policy. Other synonymous terms include “member” and/or “insured.” In some cases the subscriber is the same person as the patient.  PATIENT - The term “patient” is intended to convey the case where the Patient loop is used. In that case, the patient is not the same person as the subscriber, and the patient is a person (e.g., spouse, children, others) who is covered by the subscriber’s insurance plan.  PAYER – health insurance companies, HMOs, company health plans, and certain government programs that pay for health care, such as Medicare and Medicaid.

22.  Batch — Typically grouped together in large quantities and processed en-masse. In a batch mode, the sender sends multiple transactions to the receiver, either directly or through a switch (clearinghouse), and does not remain connected while the receiver processes the transactions.  Real Time — Transactions that are used in a real time mode typically are those that require an immediate response. In a real time mode, the sender sends a request transaction to the receiver, either directly or through a switch (clearinghouse), and remains connected while the receiver processes the transaction and returns a response transaction to the original sender. Typically, response times range from a few seconds to around thirty seconds, and should not exceed one minute. Methods Of Receiving and Sending 837 Transactions
