837P Professional Claim Fields

This document provides definitions of header-level CSV columns and properties of Claim and related objects in JSON.

The “EDI Element” column contains the X12 “Reference Designator,” such as CLM01. Where appropriate, we also provide an X12 qualifier code, such as *435 from the DTP*435*D8*20030108~ string (admission date).

“EDI Element” is blank for the fields that are not populated from EDI data. These fields are calculated based on other fields (e.g., totalAdjAmount) or generated by the converter (id).

To view elements of any EDI segment, navigate to this 837P example, select “EDI View” and click on any segment ID.
