One thing that truly sets ZirMed apart is our ability to accept transactions in virtually
any format.
Claims
We accept HIPAA-standard 837 X12 transactions as well as various flavors of the National
Standard Format (NSF) and HCFA-1500 and UB92 Print Files. We also accept many different
proprietary formats. Regardless of the inbound format, ZirMed converts these claims into
the HIPAA-standard 837 X12 transaction before delivering claims to payers.
Remittances
Payers deliver Remittance data to ZirMed in the HIPAA-required 835 X12 format. ZirMed can either
forward the same 835 X12 transaction to the provider, or we can convert it to one of many
proprietary remittance formats such as an older version of X12 (3030, 3051 3B, or 3051 4B) or
an NSF format.
Eligibility Inquiries and Responses
Providers can submit eligibility inquiries to ZirMed via the HIPAA-standard 270 X12 transaction
or via a proprietary format such as ZirMed’s own Simple File format. In addition, inquiries can
be directly entered into web screens on the ZirMed website. All inquiries are converted to the
HIPAA-standard 270 X12 transaction and forwarded to the payer. Responses are received from payers
in the 271 X12 format and made available to providers either via web screens on the ZirMed website
or one of several EDI formats including the HIPAA-standard 271 X12 transaction and other
proprietary formats.
Our innovative and nimble technology solutions assist providers in complying with their HIPAA
compliance obligations without requiring you to employ complicated and expensive technology
solutions in your own infrastructure.
