Our regional SNIP organization is working on a companion guide for claims and we are attempting to develop that list. We are about 2/3rds through the professional claim. We will make it public once it is complete.

Subject: Re: req vs. situation - companion documents
Janie,
One more comment on companion guides: Most of the "situations" that, if
TRUE, trigger the required use of a situational segment are situations that
are present and observable right in the transaction. Situations like "a
payor simply requires it", however, will have to be spelled out in a
companion guide. I like to think of these as "soft situational" fields, as
opposed to "hard situationals" such as "use this element if segment X has a
value of Y". The regular IG is adequate for the "hard situational" fields
and each payor's Companion guide should probably address ALL of the "soft"
ones.
(I wonder if anyone has made a list of "soft" situational elements that
could form the basis for a "standard" companion guide template?)
Regards,
Chris
