Introduction

For the health care industry to achieve the potential administrative cost savings with Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), standards have been developed and need to be implemented consistently by all organizations. To facilitate a smooth transition into the EDI environment, uniform implementation is critical.
Providers of medical services must currently submit health care eligibility and benefit inquiries in a variety of methods, either on paper, via phone, or electronically. The information requirements vary depending upon:

  • type of insurance plan
  • type of service performed
  • where the service is performed
  • where the inquiry is initiated
  • where the inquiry is sent

  • The Health Care Coverage, Eligibility, and Benefit transactions are designed so that inquiry submitters (information receivers) can determine (a) whether an information source organization (e.g., payer, employer, HMO) has a particular subscriber or dependent on file, and (b) the health care eligibility and/or benefit information about that subscriber and/or dependent(s). The data available through these transaction sets is used to verify an individual’s eligibility and benefits, but cannot provide a history of benefit use.
    The purpose of this implementation guide is to explain the developers’ intent when the Health Care Eligibility, Coverage, or Benefit Inquiry (270) and Health Care Eligibility, Coverage, or Benefit Information (271) transaction sets were designed and to give guidance on how they should be implemented in the health care industry. Specifically, this guide defines where data is put and when it is included for the ANSI ASC X12.281 and X12.282 transaction sets for the purpose of conveying health care eligibility and benefit information.

    This paired transaction set is comprised of two transactions: the 270, which is used to request (inquire) information, and the 271, which is used to respond with coverage, eligibility, and benefit information. The official names for these transactions are:

    ANSI ASC X12.281 - Eligibility, Coverage, or Benefit Inquiry (270)
    ANSI ASC X12.282 - Eligibility, Coverage, or Benefit Information (271)


    The 270 document typically includes the following:

  • Details of the sender of the inquiry (name and contact information of the information receiver)
  • Name of the recipient of the inquiry (the information source)
  • Details of the plan subscriber about to the inquiry is referring
  • Description of eligibility or benefit information requested

  • The ASC X12N Specification  - 5010 Version

    EDI 5010 Documentation 837 Professional Loop 2430 Line Adjudication Information

    EDI 5010 Documentation 837 Professional Loop 2430 Line Adjudication Information



            

    This loop is required only if current insurance sequence > 1. i.e. for secondary, tertiary, etc.

    Say for example, if the current insurance is secondary, then we should run this loop for the primary insurance. If the current insurance is tertiary, then we should run this loop for the primary and then secondary insurance. And also so on. In general, take the sequence number of the current insurance, and run this loop for all the previous sequence insurance.

    We need to repeat this loop for each line item in the claim.

    When submitting coordination of benefits (COB) claims to Secondary Payer, the prior payer’s payment information must be included in the 837 claim file. There is important edit takes places in COB Claims at line item level for balancing the amounts.This edit is to verify that each charge line balances with the payment information at the line level. An example of line level balancing is below. The data in red provides an example of how the line level must balance.
     
    Service Level (Loop 2400) line item charge amount Professional (SV102) or line item charge amount Institutional (SV203) = the sum of all other payer service line paid amounts (SVD02) at the service level (Loop 2430) + the sum of all the service line adjustments (CAS03) at the service level (Loop 2430)
     
    Line level balancing:
    SV1*HC:90834*137*UN*1***1:2:3
    DTP*472*D8*20130513
    SVD*99726*47.28*HC:90834**1
    CAS*CO*45*77.86
    CAS*PR*2*11.86
    137 = 47.28 + 77.86 + 11.86

     

    If there is balancing issue, then you will receive “Secondary Claim Information Missing or Invalid - Each line must balance; Line Charge Amount = Line Sum Of Adjustment Amounts + Line Payer Paid Amount”
