5 Chapter 1 Introduction Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield (Anthem) is pleased to provide this Companion Guide (CG) to help employer groups or their representatives to produce a HIPAA-compliant 834 Benefit Enrollment and Maintenance transaction. The purpose of this Companion Guide is to simplify the implementation of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996 provisions for administrative simplification that support the electronic exchange of benefit enrollment and maintenance information. Use this Companion Guide in conjunction with the ASC X12N 834 Implementation Guide. This chapter is divided into the following sections: Section 1.1 HIPAA Purpose Overview of ANSI ASC X12N Transactions ASC X12N Impleme ntation Guides (IGs) ASC X12N 834 Implementation Guide (IG) Companion Guide Use along with the IG Version and Release Numbers Anthem Electronic Enrollment System Implementation Cycle Conventions for Charts... 3 Page 1.1 HIPAA Purpose The primary purpose of HIPAA is to provide better access to health insurance, limit fraud and abuse, and reduce administrative costs. To this end, the legislation covers two key areas, health insurance portability and administrative simplification. 1.2 Overview of ANSI ASC X12N Transactions The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) is the recognized coordinator and clearinghouse for regional standards. ANSI approves standards for Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) developed by the Accredited Standards Committee (ASC) X12. The ASC X12N subcommittee develops standards for insurance. The ANSI ASC X12N subcommittee developed the nine standard health care transactions to support HIPAA requirements for administrative simplification. Organizations using electronic commerce to perform transactions covered by HIPAA must consistently comply with the applicable ANSI ASC X12N standards. The nine ANSI ASC X12N standards that specify health care transactions include the following: 270/271 Health Care Eligibility Benefit Inquiry and Response 276/277 Health Care Claim Status Request and Response 278 Health Care Service Review Request for Review and Response 820 Payroll Deducted and Other Group Premium Payment for Insurance Products 834 Benefit Enrollment and Maintenance 835 Health Care Claim Payment/Advice 837 Health Care Claim (One each for Professional, Institutional, and Dental transactions) IG Version X095A1 Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield CG Release 1.0 (September 2003) Southeast Region 1

6 1.3 ASC X12N Implementation Guides (IGs) An ASC X12N Implementation Guide (IG) is developed for each ANSI ASC X12N standard transaction. The IGs explain the proper use of a standard for a specific business purpose. The ASC X12N IGs are the primary reference documents used by organizations implementing the associated transactions. 1.4 ASC X12N 834 Implementation Guide (IG) The ASC X12N 834 IG provides standard data requirements and content for users of ANSI ASC X12.84 Benefit Enrollment and Maintenance (834), hereafter called the 834 or the 834 transaction. The 834 transaction transfers benefit enrollment and maintenance information from the group or vendor to a payer Companion Guide (CG) Use along with the IG Use the information in this Companion Guide in conjunction with the ASC X12N 834 Implementation Guide; hereafter referred to as the 834 Implementation Guide or 834 IG. This Companion Guide is intended to simplify implementation. As explained in the 834 IG, this document does not: Modify the definition, condition, or use of a data element or segment in the standard Implementation Guide, Add additional data elements or segments to the standard, Utilize any code or data values which are not valid in the standard Implementation Guide, or Change the meaning or intent of the standard Implementation Guide. 1.6 Version and Release Numbers For this Companion Guide, the version number corresponds with the version number of the 834 IG. The version and release for this document are as follows: IG Version: X095A1 CG Release: 1.0 (September 2003) As Anthem updates this Companion Guide, the new version number will correspond with the new version number of the updated 834 IG. If Anthem updates this Companion Guide with changes that do not result from an updated 834 IG, the version number will remain the same as for the 834 IG, but the release number will change. 1.7 Anthem Electronic Enrollment System Implementation Cycle Groups or vendors interested in transmitting 834 transactions to Anthem should discuss the process with their Marketing Representative. Basically, the process is as follows: 1. The Marketing Representative discusses electronic enrollment with the group to assess the group s ability to generate a compliant 834. Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield IG Version X095A1 2 Southeast Region CG Release 1.0 (September 2003)

7 2. The Marketing Representative provides the group with this Companion Guide and other pertinent data such as the group number and the contact number(s) for their Anthem Enrollment Coordinator. 3. Anthem and the group or vendor undergo a testing process. During this phase, the Marketing Representative and the Enrollment Coordinator work with the group/vendor to resolve any issues and keep them informed of the testing status. Once all issues are resolved, the group/vendor can begin production. 1.8 Conventions for Charts Most segments and data elements are fully explained in the 834 IG and require no additional information. This Companion Guide provides information only about data elements that require specific instructions to efficiently process through our systems. This Companion Guide presents data elements in a chart format and in the same order as in the 834 IG. If a data element does not need specific information for processing, then it is not documented in the charts. The charts in this Companion Guide show values in the following ways: Normal text (No Italics or Parentheses) Enter values written in normal text, exactly as they appear in the Value column. In the following example, the value for the 1000B, N104 is the Federal Taxpayer Identification Number. Enter the value exactly as shown in the chart. Loop 1000B Reference Designator/Name Value N Insurer Identification Code Italics Information printed in italics provides instruction or definition for the value.

17 Chapter Companion Document Insurance coverage sponsors or groups use the 834 transaction to send enrollment information to Anthem. This chapter provides information and instructions to create an 834 transaction. Use the information in this chapter in conjunction with the 834 Implementation Guide (IG). This chapter is divided into the following sections: Section 4.1 Basic Instructions Header Detail Trailer...20 Page 4.1 Basic Instructions In order to electronically enroll members using Anthem s Electronic Enrollment System, groups must be able to produce a HIPAA-compliant 834 full file transaction. This section provides basic requirements needed before starting the transaction. The remaining sections of this chapter provide detailed instructions regarding specific segments and data elements within the 834 transaction that require specific information for Anthem Receipt Time for Same- Day Processing Send Frequency Full 834 Transactions If an 834 transaction arrives by a specified time, Anthem can usually process it on the same day. The Anthem Electronic Enrollment Coordinator can tell you what the specified time is. Anthem prefers that you send the enrollment file no more than once a week. Some groups elect to send files every two weeks or once a month, depending on the transaction volume. If there is an emergency, call your Membership Representative for manual keying. As long as you make the same changes on your system, when you send in your next file, the Electronic Enrollment System will reconcile and synchronize the files. 834 Electronic Enrollment files are processed as they are received, usually within 24 business hours. If a group transmits two files, within the same week, the system will fully complete the process cycle on the first file, then proceed to the second. Always send full 834 enrollment transactions. Do not send transactions with only change information. All transaction files transmitted need to be full files. If there are additions, terminations, or changes to the current enrollment, send the entire enrollment file updated with the changes. If you are not able to send full files, please discuss alternatives with your Marketing Representative. IG Version X095A1 Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield CG Release 1.0 (September 2003) Southeast Region 13

18 To indicate the full transaction, always enter the value 4 in the 834 header, BGN (Beginning Segment) BGN08 (Action Code); and in the Functional Group Header, GS03 (Application Receiver s Code), enter MEMEES. Failure to send a full file will result in delays to update enrollment for group members Policy/834 Agreement for Spouse/Dependent Coverage If the policy does not include a spouse and/or dependents, then the transmission must only include an 834 transaction for the employee. It must not include transactions for a spouse and/or dependents. If the policy does include a spouse and/or dependents, then the transmission must include an 834 transaction for the employee and spouse and each dependent Changing the Primary Care Physician (PCP) Anthem does not currently use the Electronic Enrollment System for PCP changes. To change a PCP, the member calls Anthem Customer Service Changing the Insurance Line (PPO, HMO, or POS) To change the insurance line, send a transmission with two 834 transactions one to cancel the existing policy and one to add the new one. 1.

25 Chapter 5 Common Errors and FAQs Anthem and group/vendor trading partners must work together to efficiently maintain accurate group enrollment files. The group/vendor s role is to send 834 transactions in the most accurate and efficient ma nner. Delays in processing enrollment files are usually avoidable and caused by a few common errors. This chapter identifies and provides solutions to the most common errors. In addition, this chapter cites the most frequently asked questions and provides answers to those questions. This chapter is divided into the following sections: Section 5.1 Common Errors Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)...25 Page IG Version X095A1 Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield CG Release 1.0 (September 2003) Southeast Region 21

26 5.1 Common Errors Anthem receives and processes most 834 enrollment transactions with no delays. However, as in all systems sometimes transactions are not accepted or processed as efficiently as possible. In most cases, the group or vendor can avoid unnecessary delays by carefully following the instructions in the 834 Implementation Guide (IG) and in this Companion Guide. Most delays are caused by a few common errors. The instructions in this section can help you to avoid many common errors and enable Anthem to efficiently accept and process your transactions Full 834 Transactions Always send full 834 enrollment transactions. Do not send transaction files with only change information. If there are additions, terminations, or changes to the current enrollment, send the entire enrollment file updated with the changes. If you are not able to send full files, please discuss alternatives with your Marketing Representative. To indicate the full transaction, always enter the value 4 in the 834 header, BGN Segment (Beginning Segment) BGN08 (Action Code); and in the Functional Group Header, GS03 (Application Receiver s Code), enter MEMEES Accurate Group Number Accurately enter the group number in the following data element.
