HIPAA Compliance Checking

The Pack for Healthcare uses the types of HIPAA data transmission testing documented in the "Transaction Compliance and Certification" white paper developed by the workgroup for Electronic Data Interchange (WEDI) Strategic National Implementation Process (SNIP) Transactions Work Group - Testing Sub Work-Group; Dated June 11, 2002.

HIPAA Compliance Check for HIPAA X12 data validation and compliance reporting contains a series of executable maps used to validate HIPAA X12 transmission data and to report compliance with industry requirements. The compliance_check file is the source file for the HIPAA Compliance Check. This provides a non-partner configurable way to check WEDI/SNIP Type 1 through Type 4.

HIPAA Data compliance has greater capabilities than the HIPAA Compliance Check. In addition to checking WEDI/SNIP Type 1 through Type 4, it also enables checking WEDI/SNIP Type 5 through Type 7. External Code set values will be checked against values loaded into a MongoDB or similar noSQL Database.
