RBINTERFACE#

The RBINTERFACE program creates a HIPPA ANSI 834 File layout for reporting benefit information to carriers.

Required Set Up#

1) Report Parameters
2) IDIF
2) IMUF

Report Parameters#

Report Parameters	Description
Entity	Mandatory, LOV Available You must enter one entity
Interface Format Code	Mandatory, LOV Available You must select an interface code defined on IDIF (Sample ‘HL$ANSI-X12N834’)
ASK Partner Number	Used to populate Segment ‘ISA’ element ‘06’; and Segment ‘GS’ element ’02’.
ISA Control Number	Used to populate Segment ‘ISA’ element ‘13’; and Segment ‘IEA’ element ‘02’.
GS Control Number	Used to populate Segment ‘GS’ element ’06’; and Segment ‘GE’ element ‘02’..
Master Policy Number	Used to populate Segment ‘REF’ element ’02’.
From Date	The starting date used for records to be included in the file
To Date	The ending date used for records to be included in the file
Plan Type	Mandatory, LOV Available You must select a Benefit plan type to process (Sample Dental,Medical, Vision,Health)
This is a Test File	Value of ‘Y’ or ‘N’. Used to populate Segment ‘ISA’ element ’15’ (populate with ‘T’ for test file; and ‘P’ for production file).
This is an Update File	Value of ‘Y’ or ‘N’. Used to populate Segment ‘BGN’ element ’08’ (populate with ‘RX’ for replace action).
Create File	Value of ‘Y’ or ‘N’. If set to 'N' no file will be created.
Directory Name	Enter a valid directory name (Directory must be found on the database server)
File Name	Enter a file name
Include Exception	Value of ‘Y’ or ‘N’ (to include exception messages on the report)
Exception Level	Values of ‘0’ to ‘9’ (more exception messages are displayed when a higher level number is used). Use Level-2 if you want to see all the records created (or will be created) on the file listed on the report.

Interface File Definition (IDIF) Set Up#

High Line supplies a standard IDIF file definition, ‘HL$ANSI-X12N834’, for use with this process.

For each vendor required, use the IDIF function and make a copy of this pre-loaded interface layout. Rename the copy to a logical naming convention for the vendor. Use IDIF to modify the file definition to contain the required value for the vendor.

A mapping has been created between the IDIF and the RBINTERFACE program.
Only file columns that require a constant value will be needed to be defined inside this IDIF definition.

- The Beginning Position may always be defined as `1`
- The Ending Position must be defined in order for the program to know how many characters are required for each column.
- The Field Type must be defined as ‘Char’
- Constant Value, client must define the element value in this column as it is applicable to their own installation.
