Submit raw X12 claims in the Stedi portal's claims view

You can now submit claims as raw 837 X12 EDI files in the Stedi portal’s claims view.

Previously, you could only submit raw X12 claims in the Stedi portal using the transactions view. We're retiring the transactions view’s raw X12 claim submission flow with this change.

How to submit a raw X12 claim in the Stedi portal

To upload a raw X12 claim from the claims view, click Submit claim, select Upload raw X12 file, and add your .edi file.

You can also select an X12 implementation guide, such as 837P Professional Claim (X222A1) or 837D Dental Claim (X224A2), and paste in your X12.

Click Submit claim when you’re ready to submit.

The editor validates the file against the implementation guide’s spec and flags structural errors. You can fix these errors before submitting.

Submit multiple claims in one file

A single 837 X12 file can contain multiple claims, as long as they’re the same claim type – 837P professional claim, 837I institutional claim, or 837D dental claim – and use the same X12 implementation guide.

For guidance, see:

• Bulk X12 837P professional claims

• Bulk X12 837I institutional claims

• Bulk X12 837D dental claims

Claim edits

The Stedi portal’s EDI editor only checks a claim’s X12 structure. Stedi also runs claim edits after you submit a claim to catch other errors that could lead to a payer rejection.

If you submit a claim as raw X12 in the Stedi portal’s claims view, these edits run asynchronously. If the claim fails an edit, Stedi will reject the claim with a 277CA claim acknowledgment after submission.

Availability

All Stedi production accounts can submit claims as raw X12 in the Stedi portal’s claims view.
