X12 is the HIPAA-adopted standard for exchanging insurance data. Like with your elders, you should respect X12 since it standardizes administrative data among healthcare organizations and payers.
As the industry strives for better interoperability, though, you need a modernized solution for working with a paradigm like X12.
We simplify and automate processes that use X12 for data exchange. For example, say goodbye to manual workflows like faxing for prior authorizations. Redox can benefit customers on any side of the X12 data exchange, including:
- vendors
- providers
- payers
- clearinghouses
- prior authorization management companies
You can use these Redox API actions to normalize X12 data into FHIR® (and vice versa, to return X12 data back to non-FHIR® connections):
- Request coverage eligibility status
- Manage claim submission to payer or clearinghouse
- Check status of a submitted claim
To get into the nuts and bolts, we help you normalize these X12 messages into FHIR® operations:
