Inbound Authentication

The goal of the Authentication process is to make sure that the incoming file is sent according to the agreement with the partner.

Once the HIPAA file arrives in the landing zone and the ISA level processing starts, an authentication process takes place. The authentication is done by comparing parameters in the file to the workflow parameters defined in the "Interchange" section of the DX profile (please refer to the Workflow Parameters image below for an example). The Authentication process verifies that the values received in the HIPAA message (ISA level) from a partner are the same as those defined in the configured workflow parameters of the profile. The following parameters are defined:

ID	Label	Type	Representation
ISA01_IB	ISA01-Authorization Information Qualifier	Text	Dropdown List
ISA02_IB	ISA02-Authorization Information	Text	Entry Field
ISA03_IB	ISA03-Security Information Qualifier	Text	Dropdown List
ISA04_IB	ISA04-Security Information	Text	Entry Field
ISA05_IB	ISA05-Interchange Qualifier	Text	Dropdown List
ISA06_IB	ISA06-Interchange Sender ID	Text	Entry Field
ISA07_IB	ISA07-Interchange Qualifier	Text	Dropdown List
ISA08_IB	ISA08-Interchange Receiver ID	Text	Entry Field
ISA11_IB	ISA11-Repetition Separator	Text	Entry Field
ISA12_IB	ISA12-Interchange Control Version	Text	Dropdown List
ISA14_IB	ISA14-Interchange Acknowledgment Request	Text	Dropdown List
ISA15_IB	ISA15-Interchange Usage Indicator	Text	Dropdown List
ISA16_IB	ISA16-Component Element Separator	Text	Entry Field

An empty workflow parameter in the "Interchange" section indicates that this specific authentication check is skipped.

If the Authentication process fails:

The status of the event is updated to "Authentication Error"

A TA1 message is sent to the partner

The TA1 message is added to the DX Event with a description of the Authentication error

as shown in the following image.

The following table shows the error code that will be shown in the TA1 message for each mismatch.
