Our providers are faced with a similar situation. Soundex type of matching on name, birthdate, and other information internal to the both of us will be used.
-----Original Message----- From: Howeth, Teresa [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 2:34 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: 276 / 277 Claim Status As the Payor, we had not been doing EDI at all and went from no EDI to HIPAA compliant EDI. If a claim status is received and the Insured ID provided is invalid, do we have to provide the capability to search on names prior to responding? The reason I ask is because we have a unique number assigned to each Insured and we are not always provided with the correct Insured ID. Are we going to be required to accept in the transaction and search on name to locate the number prior to returning as not our Insured? I appreciate anyone who can assist.
