HIPAA 276 Health Care Claim Status Request
Management Systems Consulting, Inc.
VERSION: 1.0 DRAFT

Author: Skip Stein

Notes: In order to protect the security and confidentiality of electronic health information, Congress has passed The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, also known as HIPAA, which was the result of efforts by the Clinton Administration and congressional healthcare reform proponents to reform healthcare in a way that would streamline industry inefficiencies, reduce paperwork, make it easier to detect and prosecute fraud and abuse and enable workers of all professions to change jobs, even if they (or family members) had pre-existing medical conditions.

276
Health Care Claim Status Request
Functional Group=HR

This Draft Standard for Trial Use contains the format and establishes the data contents of the Health Care Claim Status Request Transaction Set (276) for use within the context of an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) environment. This transaction set can be used by a provider, recipient of health care products or services, or their authorized agent to request the status of a health care claim or encounter from a health care payer. This transaction set is not intended to replace the Health Care Claim Transaction Set (837), but rather to occur after the receipt of a claim or encounter information. The request may occur at the summary or service line detail level.
