Automated Processing of Healthcare EDI Files with Astera 

HIPAA EDI standards ensure the secure exchange of enrollment data, insurance claims, invoices, patient data, and more between healthcare providers and insurance companies.

The HIPAA EDI standard is complex and can involve hundreds of data elements. Mapping these structures to the appropriate EDI format (such as X12) can be both complex and time-consuming, requiring careful handling of data elements, segments, and loops. Inconsistent or incorrect mapping can lead to data errors or claim rejections.

Another challenge is validating the accuracy, completeness, and consistency of healthcare data. Successful processing requires compliance with industry standards such as HIPAA and X12. Therefore, having the right EDI solution is essential for achieving efficiency, accuracy, and compliance in healthcare.

Astera EDI Connect offers powerful data translation, mapping, parsing, and integration for seamless communication between employers, health plan providers and insurers. EDI Connect easily identifies and corrects missing data fields and compliance simplifying EDI files processing.
