Using Validation and Acknowledgments

The HIPAA Validation version of the HIPAA library contains a special component called

HIPAA_Validation

. This component implements the validation and acknowledgment mechanisms.

The project can process all types of HIPAA messages. It can perform all the validation types defined in the HIPAA standard, for example, checking for mandatory fields and balancing. The project can generate TA1, 997, 999, 824, and 277 acknowledgments. For more information about the validation and acknowledgment types, see the HIPAA documentation.

You can use the

HIPAA_Validation

component in the following way:

In the Developer tool, user Parsers from the HIPAA Validation library to create one or more HIPAA Library objects.

Create and deploy an additional Library object, based on the

HIPAA_Validation

component of the HIPAA Validation library.

When an application receives a HIPAA message, it can pass it to the

HIPAA_Validation

component for validation and generation of acknowledgments.

As required, the application passes the acknowledgments back to the sender.

If the input passed the validation tests, that application passes the input to the regular parser service, generating an XML representation of the HIPAA message.

Optionally, you can configure transformations that combine these steps. For example, a single transformation might pass the same input to

HIPAA_Validation

and to a regular Parser, in sequence.
