Overview

Availity, LLC., a leader in EDI healthcare technology, offers a full suite of EDI health information exchange services through a single web connection to the Availity® Health Information Network. In addition to offering an extensive array of real-time EDI transactions, we also provide near real-time processing of batch EDI transactions. The Availity® Health Information Network is your one stop on the web for secure connectivity and electronic access to an extensive list of commercial insurance payers.

The Availity® Health Information Network is operationally HIPAA compliant, accepting and processing in a secure environment all American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Accredited Standards Committee (ASC) X12N standard transactions mandated by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Availity edits batches of transactions for X12N syntax compliance, and then splits the batches into the lowest transaction level possible before applying HIPAA-semantic validation rules. Depending on the payer, Availity might also apply payer-specific edits to transactions that pass HIPAA syntax validation before routing the transactions to the designated payer.

Using the Availity® Health Information Network file transfer features, users can send all files and retrieve responses through one interface.
