Heading
Transaction Set Header
To indicate the start of a transaction set and to assign a control number

Identifying control number that must be unique within the transaction set functional group assigned by the originator for a transaction set
- The Transaction Set Control Numbers in ST02 and SE02 must be identical. The number is assigned by the originator and must be unique within a functional group (GS-GE). For example, start with the number 0001 and increment from there. The number also aids in error resolution research. Use the corresponding value in SE02 for this transaction set.

When used, this implementation convention reference takes precedence over the implementation reference specified in the GS08.
- This element must be populated with the guide identifier named in Section 1.2.
- This field contains the same value as GS08. Some translator products strip off the ISA and GS segments prior to application (STSE) processing. Providing the information from the GS08 at this level will ensure that the appropriate application mapping is utilized at translation time.

To identify dependencies among and the content of hierarchically related groups of data segments
A unique number assigned by the sender to identify a particular data segment in a hierarchical structure
- HL01 shall contain a unique alphanumeric number for each occurrence of the HL segment in the transaction set. For example, HL01 could be used to indicate the number of occurrences of the HL segment, in which case the value of HL01 would be "1" for the initial HL segment and would be incremented by one in each subsequent HL segment within the transaction.
Identification number of the next higher hierarchical data segment that the data segment being described is subordinate to
- HL02 identifies the hierarchical ID number of the HL segment to which the current HL segment is subordinate.
Code defining the characteristic of a level in a hierarchical structure
- HL03 indicates the context of the series of segments following the current HL segment up to the next occurrence of an HL segment in the transaction. For example, HL03 is used to indicate that subsequent segments in the HL loop form a logical grouping of data referring to shipment, order, or item-level information.
- EV
- Event
Code indicating if there are hierarchical child data segments subordinate to the level being described

Patient Event Tracking Number
To uniquely identify a transaction to an application
- Required when the requester needs to assign a unique trace number to the patient event request. If not required by this implementation guide, may be provided at the sender's discretion but cannot be required by the receiver.
- This enables the requester to
- uniquely identify this patient event request
- trace the request
- match the response to the request
- reference this request in any associated attachments containing additional patient information related to this patient event request.
- If the transaction is routed through a clearinghouse, the clearinghouse may add their own TRN segment. If the transaction passes through multiple clearinghouses, and the second clearinghouse needs to assign their own TRN segment, they must replace the TRN from the first clearinghouse and retain it to be returned in the 278 response. If the second clearinghouse does not need to assign a TRN segment, they should pass all received TRN segments.
- Each trace number provided in the TRN segment at this level on the request must be returned by the UMO in the TRN segment at the corresponding level of the response.
Code identifying which transaction is being referenced
- 1
- Current Transaction Trace Numbers
Reference information as defined for a particular Transaction Set or as specified by the Reference Identification Qualifier
- TRN02 provides unique identification for the transaction.

- TRN03 identifies an organization.
- Use this element to identify the organization that assigned this trace number. TRN03 must be completed to aid requesters and clearinghouses in identifying their TRN in the 278 response.
- The first position must be either a "1" if an EIN is used, a "3" if a DUNS is used or a "9" if a user assigned identifier is used.
Reference information as defined for a particular Transaction Set or as specified by the Reference Identification Qualifier
- TRN04 identifies a further subdivision within the organization.

Various services, such as physical therapy, spinal manipulation, and allergy treatment, have both a delivery pattern and a time span of authorization. Many UMOs place time limits - as in will not authorize anything for more than 30 days at a time. For example, blanket authorization for allergy treatments as required for 30 days. At the end of the 30 days, the provider must request to renew the certification - not extend it - because the UMO authorizes for 30 day intervals, one interval at a time.
- S
- Revised
Use if the requester is revising the specifics of a certification for which services have not been rendered. For example, the requester may be requesting additional procedures or other procedures for the same patient event.

Health Care Services Delivery
To specify the delivery pattern of health care services
Required when HSD02 is valued to qualify the type of service count for this patient event. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
- An explanation of the uses of this segment follows.
HSD01 qualifies HSD02: If the value in HSD02=1 and the value in HSD01=VS (Visits), this means "one visit".
Between HSD02 and HSD03 verbally insert a "per every".
HSD03 qualifies HSD04: If the value in HSD04=3 and the value in HSD03=DA (Day), this means "three days". Between HSD04 and HSD05 verbally insert a "for". HSD05 qualifies HSD06: If the value in HSD06=21 and the value in HSD05=7 (Days), this means "21 days".
The total message reads:
HSDVS1DA3721~ = "One visit per every three days for 21 days".
Another similar data string of HSDVS2DA4720~ = "Two visits per every four days for 20 days".
An alternate way to use HSD is to employ HSD07 and/or HSD08. A data string of HSDVS1****SXD~ means "1 visit on Wednesday and Thursday morning".
