Configuring Acknowledgements
In addition to 997 Functional Acknowledgements, 999 Implementation Acknowledgements, and TA1 Interchange Acknowledgement Segments, the following business application acknowledgements can be automatically generated for HIPAA transactions received from your trading partners:
| • | Application advice (824) |
| • | Unsolicited Health Care Claim Status Notification (277U) |
| • | Health Care Claim Acknowledgement (277CA) |
The 824, 277U, and 277CA acknowledgements are treated as regular transactions and acknowledgements are returned for them just as they would be returned for a normal HIPAA transaction.
Example: If the system is configured to return 997s and TA1s, then a 997 and TA1 is returned when the 824, 277U or 277CA acknowledgement is received.
The 824, 277U, and 277CA acknowledgements are not supported for use in synchronous request/response HIPAA transactions. For more information on configuring 999 Implementation Acknowledgements, see Configuring 999 Implementation Acknowledgements.
