Enabling Rules with HIPAA Compliance Check

With Compliance Check application, the Configurable Rules application, allows you to determine which rules are enabled and disabled for validation, and generates the corresponding updated schemas and qualifier file to use with Compliance Check.

The parameter file allows the application to be run in one of several ways. A validation method of map (Validation_Method="M") allows the data to be passed against the schema. It then sends only invalid data through the full compliance check process. This method saves processing time and resources, especially when processing data that is predominately good. As a result, most rules that are enforced for HIPAA must be defined two times. The rules are defined once during schema checking and again in the Compliance Check Rules system.
