Professional Claims JSON-to-EDI Contents

Use our OpenAPI Spec JSON file as a reference for development. Notes on the data in the following sections include:

  • The Constraints column describes the minimum and maximum number of alphanumeric characters that a field entry can occupy: for example, 1/60 R is a Required field with a minimum of one and maximum of 60 characters.
  • If a field is required, the Constraints entry notes it.

For the Constraints column in each table, the following letters stand for specific meanings:

  • R = Required (must be used if/when the object is part of the transaction);
  • S = Situational (may be required depending on how the transaction content is structured).

Situational loops, segments, or elements can be Situational in two forms:

  • Required IF a condition is met, but can be used at the discretion of the sender if it is not required (for example, some descriptive notes can be added to a claim if necessary);
  • Required IF a condition is met, but if not, the sender must not use it in the request ("Do not send").
