EDI 835 Health Care Claim Payment/Advice Transaction Specifications
The EDI 835 transaction set is called Health Care Claim Payment and Remittance Advice. It has been specified by HIPAA 5010 requirements for the electronic transmission of healthcare payment and benefit information. The EDI 835 is used primarily by Healthcare insurance plans to make payments to healthcare providers, to provide Explanations of Benefits (EOBs), or both. When a healthcare service provider submits an 837 Health Care Claim, the insurance plan uses the 835 to detail the payment to that claim, including:
- What charges were paid, reduced or denied
- Whether there was a deductible, co-insurance, co-pay, etc.
- Any bundling or splitting of claims or line items
- How the payment was made, such as through a clearinghouse
