Type 1 EDI Standard Integrity Testing

Type 1 EDI Standard Integrity Testing validates the basic syntactical integrity of the EDI submission.

Type 1 testing conducts a test of the EDI file for the following:

• valid segments
• segment order
• element attributes
• numeric values in numeric data elements
• validation of X12 syntax
• compliance with X12 semantic rules

Reporting options for Type 1 exceptions identified by the Transformation Extender HIPAA Compliance Checker include the TA1 interchange acknowledgment, the standard X12 997 functional acknowledgment, the HIPAA 999 implementation acknowledgment, and the Translated Acknowledgment report.
