  1. 2000A Loop Mandatory
    Repeat 1
    1. To identify dependencies among and the content of hierarchically related groups of data segments

      This segment identifies the information source hierarchical level. For a notification transaction, this segment corresponds to the identification of the provider, payer, HMO, delegated entity, or other utilization management organization sending this information.
    2. 2010A Loop Mandatory
      Repeat 2
      1. To supply the full name of an individual or organizational entity

        The first occurrence of the NM1 loop is required and identifies the notification sender. In most cases, the sender is the same entity as the information source. The information source is the entity that determined the outcome of a health services review or the owner of the information.
        The second NM1 loop may be used when the sender is not the same entity as the information source, or if there is a need to identify another requesting entity that was neither the sender or the information source.
      2. To specify identifying information

        Required prior to the mandated HIPAA National Provider Identifier (NPI) implementation date when an identification number other than the NPI is necessary for the UMO to identify the provider; OR Required after the mandated NPI implementation date, when the entity is a non-health care provider, and an identifier is necessary for the UMO to identify the entity. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
        Use the NM1 segment for the primary identifier.
      3. To specify the location of the named party

        Required when necessary to identify the information source by location. If not required, by this implementation guide, do not send.
        Used to identify a specific location when the information source has multiple locations and his authority varies based on location.
      4. To specify the geographic place of the named party

        Required when necessary to identify the information source by location. If not required, by this implementation guide, do not send.
      5. To identify a person or office to whom administrative communications should be directed

        When the communication number represents a telephone number in the United States and other countries using the North American Dialing Plan (for voice, data, fax, etc.), the communication number should always include the area code and telephone number using the format AAABBBCCCC. Where AAA is the area code, BBB is the telephone number prefix, and CCCC is the telephone number (e.g. (534)224-2525 would be represented as 5342242525). The extension, when applicable, should be included in the communication number immediately after the telephone number.
        Required when the information receiver must direct requests for follow up to a specific contact, electronic mail, facsimile, or phone number. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
      6. To specify the identifying characteristics of a provider

        PRV02 qualifies PRV03.
        Required when the information source is a provider and the provider's role in the care of the patient or the provider's specialty is needed to further identify the provider. If not required by this implementation guide, may be provided at the sender's discretion, but cannot be required by the receiver.
    3. 2000B Loop Mandatory
      Repeat 1
      1. To identify dependencies among and the content of hierarchically related groups of data segments

        This segment indicates the health care services review notification information receiver.
      2. 2010B Loop Mandatory
        Repeat 1
        1. To supply the full name of an individual or organizational entity

          This segment identifies the receiver of information.
      3. 2000C Loop Mandatory
        Repeat 1
        1. To identify dependencies among and the content of hierarchically related groups of data segments

          This segment indicates the subscriber hierarchical level. This segment corresponds to the identification of the subscriber or individual insured member. The subscriber could also be the patient. If the subscriber is the patient or the patient has a unique insurance identifier, the dependent hierarchical level (Loop 2000D) is not used.
        2. 2010C Loop Mandatory
          Repeat 1
          1. To supply the full name of an individual or organizational entity

            This segment conveys the name and identification number of the subscriber (who may also be the patient).
            The Member Identification Number (NM108/NM109) is required and may be adequate to identify the subscriber to the UMO. However, the UMO can require additional information. The maximum data elements that the UMO can require to identify the subscriber, in addition to the member ID are as follows: Subscriber Last Name (NM103) Subscriber First Name (NM104) Subscriber Birth Date (DMG01 and DMG02)
            Refer to Section 1.11.2.1, Identifying the Subscriber/Patient.
          2. To specify identifying information

            Required when needed to provide a supplemental identifier for the subscriber. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send. The primary identifier is the Member Identification Number in the NM1 segment.
            Health Insurance Claim (HIC) Number or Medicaid Recipient Identification Number is to be provided in the NM1 segment as a Member Identification Number when it is the primary number a UMO knows a member by (such as for Medicare or Medicaid). Do not use this segment for the Health Insurance Claim (HIC) Number or Medicaid Recipient Identification Number unless they are different from the Member Identification Number provided in the NM1 segment.
            If the information source values this segment with the Patient Account Number (REF01="EJ") on the notification, the notification receiver must return the same value in this segment on the acknowledgment response if one is returned.
          3. To specify the location of the named party

            Required when the subscriber is the patient and the current address of the patient is used to determine the appropriate location or network of service. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
          4. To specify the geographic place of the named party

            Required when the subscriber is the patient and the current address of the patient is used to determine the appropriate location or network of service. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
          5. To supply demographic information

            Required when birth date is needed to identify the patient or when gender information was used to render a medical decision. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
          6. To provide benefit information on insured entities

            Required when the subscriber's role in the military was used to determine the appropriate benefit/level of care. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
        3. 2000D Loop Optional
          Repeat 1
          1. To identify dependencies among and the content of hierarchically related groups of data segments

            This hierarchical loop is required when the patient is someone other than the subscriber and the patient does not have a unique (different from the subscriber) member ID. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
            If the patient has a unique member ID, use Loop 2000C to identify the patient.
            Required segments in this loop are required only when this loop is used.
          2. 2010D Loop Mandatory
            Repeat 1
            1. To supply the full name of an individual or organizational entity

              This segment conveys the name of the dependent who is the patient.
              The maximum data elements in Loop 2010D that can be required by a UMO to identify a dependent are as follows: Dependent Last Name (NM103) Dependent First Name (NM104) Dependent Birth Date (DMG01 and DMG02)
            2. To specify identifying information

              Required when needed to provide a supplemental identifier for the dependent. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
              Use the Subscriber Supplemental Identifier (REF) segment in Loop 2010C for supplemental identifiers related to the subscriber's policy or group number.
              If the information source values this segment with the Patient Account Number (REF01="EJ") on the notification, the notification receiver must return the same value in this segment on the acknowledgment response if one is returned.
            3. To specify the location of the named party

              Required when the current address of the patient is used to determine the appropriate location or network of service. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
            4. To specify the geographic place of the named party

              Required when the current address of the patient is used to determine the appropriate location or network of service. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
            5. To supply demographic information

              Required when birth date is needed to identify the patient or when gender information was used to render a medical decision. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
            6. To provide benefit information on insured entities

              Required when patient relationship to insured or birth sequence was used to determine the appropriate benefit/level of care. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
              This segment may be used to further identify the patient. Examples include identifying a patient in a multiple birth or differentiating dependents with the same name.
          3. 2000E Loop Mandatory
            Repeat 1
            1. To identify dependencies among and the content of hierarchically related groups of data segments

              Loop 2000E identifies information about the patient event and includes specific person, group practice, facility, or specialty entity providing services.
              Patient event information identified at the 2000E loop applies to all subsequent 2000F service loops. Values entered at a specific 2000F service loop override 2000E patient event information for that 2000F service loop only.
            2. To uniquely identify a transaction to an application

              Required when the information source needs to assign a unique trace number at the patient event level. 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 information receiver in the TRN segment at the corresponding level of the response.
            3. To specify the validity of the request and indicate follow-up action authorized

              Use this AAA segment to identify the reasons why a request could not be processed based on the data at this level of the request. If not required, may be provided at the sender's discretion.
              Required when this is a notification of a health care services review that was rejected due to invalid or missing patient event information. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
            4. To specify health care services review information

              Required to identify the type of health care services in this notification.
            5. To specify the outcome of a health care services review

              The HCR segment at the 2000E event level contains information relevant to the original decision holder for the event. Certification Action, Review Identification, Review Decision Reason Code and Second Surgical Opinion Indicator data from the original decision maker is made available in the HCR segment to the information receiver.
              Required when health care services review information applies to the event level. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
            6. To specify identifying information

              This is the authorization number assigned by the UMO to the original review outcome associated with this event. This is not the trace number assigned by the requester.
              Required when the certification number assigned by the UMO to the original event review outcome was used by the UMO to determine the outcome of this service review. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
            7. To specify identifying information

              This is the administrative number assigned by the Information receiver in an acknowledgment from a prior notification. This is not the trace number assigned by the Information receiver.
              Required when this notification is related to an acknowledgment received from the information receiver in a prior acknowledgment transaction. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
            8. To specify any or all of a date, a time, or a time period

              Report delivery patterns for specific services in the Service Level (Loop 2000F).
              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: HSD*VS*1*DA*3*7*21~ = "One visit per every three days for 21 days". Another similar data string of HSD*VS*2*DA*4*7*20~ = "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 HSD*VS*1*****SX*D~ means "1 visit on Wednesday and Thursday morning".
            20. To supply information specific to hospital claims

              Required when identifying certifications for admissions (UM01 = AR) to a facility. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
            21. To supply information related to the ambulance service rendered to a patient

              Required when health care services review is for non-emergency transportation services. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.

              Required when identifying certification for spinal manipulation services (UM01=HS) when the patient's condition or treatment involves subluxation. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
            23. To supply information regarding certification of medical necessity for home oxygen therapy

              Required when identifying initial, extended, or revised certification of home oxygen therapy. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
              Use the UM segment data element UM02 instead of CR501 to specify the Certification Type Code.
              Use the HSD segment instead of CR502 to specify the treatment period.
            24. To supply information related to the certification of a home health care patient

              Required when identifying certification of home health care, private duty nursing, or services by a nurses' agency. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.

            25. To identify the type or transmission or both of paperwork or supporting information

              This PWK segment is required to identify attachments that are sent electronically (PWK02 = EL) but are transmitted in another X12functional group rather than by paper or other medium. PWK06 is used to identify the attached electronic documentation. The number inPWK06 would be referenced in the electronic attachment.
              Required when needed to identify missing teeth for dental services, or to identify additional documentation (electronic, paper, or other medium) associated with this health care services review that applies to the patient event and/or all the services requested and the 278 request (ST-SE) does not support this information in its segments and data elements. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
              The information source can also use this PWK segment to identify paperwork that is held at the provider's office and is available upon request by the information receiver. Use code AA in PWK02 to convey this specific use of the PWK segment. See code note under PWK02, code AA.
            26. To provide a free-form format that allows the transmission of text information

              Required when it is necessary to send additional information about the patient event that could not otherwise be codified within the 2000E Loop. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
              Free form text or description fields are not recommended because they require human interpretation.
              Do not use the MSG segment to relay information that you can send using codified information in existing data elements. If you need to use the MSG segment, you should approach X12N with data maintenance to solve the business need without the use of the MSG segment.

                If Loop 2000F is not valued, this segment conveys the name and identification number of the service provider (person, group, or facility) specialist, or specialty entity to provide services to the patient for this patient event.
                If Loop 2000F is valued, the providers identified in this Loop 2010EA apply to all the services identified in Loop 2000F unless Loop 2010F is valued. Providers identified in Loop 2010F override the providers identified in Loop 2010EA for that service only.
              2. To specify identifying information

                Use the NM1 segment for the primary identifier.
                Required on or after the mandated implementation date for the HIPAA National Provider Identifier (NPI) when the provider is not a specialty entity and the NPI is not reported in NM109 of this loop and another identifier is available to the submitter. OR Required prior to the mandated NPI implementation date when an additional identification number to the NPI provided in NM109 of this loop is necessary for the UMO to identify the patient event provider (2010E) service provider (2010F). OR Required prior to the mandated NPI implementation date when necessary for the UMO to identify the patient event provider (2010E) service provider (2010F).

                When the communication number represents a telephone number in the United States and other countries using the North American Dialing Plan (for voice, data, fax, etc.), the communication number should always include the area code and telephone number using the format AAABBBCCCC. Where AAA is the area code, BBB is the telephone number prefix, and CCCC is the telephone number (e.g. (534)224-2525 would be represented as 5342242525). The extension, when applicable, should be included in the communication number immediately after the telephone number.
                Required when needed to identify a contact name and/or communications number for the provider. If not required by this implementation guide, may be provided at the sender's discretion but cannot be required by the receiver.
              6. To specify the validity of the request and indicate follow-up action authorized

                Required when this is a notification of a health care services review that was rejected due to invalid or missing service provider information. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
              7. To specify the identifying characteristics of a provider

                Required when the notification is for services of a specialist or specialty entity to indicate the provider's specialty. If not required by this implementation guide, may be provided a the sender's discretion but cannot be required by the receiver.

Where AAA is the area code, BBB is the telephone number prefix, and CCCC is the telephone number (e.g. (534)224-2525 would be represented as 5342242525). The extension, when applicable, should be included in the communication number immediately after the telephone number.
                By definition of the standard, if PER03 is used, PER04 is required.
                Required when the request for additional patient information must be routed to a specific contact, electronic mail, facsimile, or phone number. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.

                Required when identifying specific services associated with this patient event. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
                This segment identifies the service(s) and conveys the review outcome related to that service(s).
              2. To uniquely identify a transaction to an application

                This enables the requester to - uniquely identify this service line request - trace the request - match the response to the request - reference this request in any associated attachments containing additional service information related to this service line request.
                Required when the requester needs to assign a unique trace number to the service line request. If not required by this implementation guide, may be provided at the sender's discretion, but cannot be required by the receiver.
                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.
                If the request contains more than one occurrence of Loop 2000F and the requester needs to uniquely identify each service level request this TRN segment is required in each Service loop.
              3. To specify the validity of the request and indicate follow-up action authorized

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: HSD*VS*1*DA*3*7*21~ = "One visit per every three days for 21 days". Another similar data string of HSD*VS*2*DA*4*7*20~ = "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 HSD*VS*1*****SX*D~ means "1 visit on Wednesday and Thursday morning".
                Required when identifying services that have a specific pattern of delivery and the pattern of delivery or usage for this service is different from the pattern of delivery or usage (HSD) in the Patient Event (Loop 2000E). If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.

                Required when the information source has additional documentation (electronic, paper, or other medium) associated with this health care services review that applies to the service(s) in this Service loop, and the 278 Notification, or Information Copy (ST-SE) does not support this information in its segments and data elements. If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
                Additional information requested at the Service level should apply to a specific service and/or all the services requested in this service loop.
                This PWK segment is required to identify attachments that are sent electronically (PWK02 = EL) but are transmitted in another X12 functional group rather than by paper or other medium. PWK06 is used to identify the attached electronic documentation. The number in PWK06 would be referenced in the electronic attachment.
                The information source can also use this PWK segment to identify paperwork that is held at the provider's office and is available upon request by the information receiver. Use code AA in PWK02 to convey this specific use of the PWK segment. See code note under PWK02, code AA.
              18. To provide a free-form format that allows the transmission of text information

          2. To uniquely identify a transaction to an application

            Required when the information source needs to assign a unique trace number at the patient event level. 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.

            2. To uniquely identify a transaction to an application

              This enables the requester to - uniquely identify this service line request - trace the request - match the response to the request - reference this request in any associated attachments containing additional service information related to this service line request.
              Required when the requester needs to assign a unique trace number to the service line request. If not required by this implementation guide, may be provided at the sender's discretion, but cannot be required by the receiver.
              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.
              If the request contains more than one occurrence of Loop 2000F and the requester needs to uniquely identify each service level request this TRN segment is required in each Service loop.

            16. To specify the delivery pattern of health care services

              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: HSD*VS*1*DA*3*7*21~ = "One visit per every three days for 21 days". Another similar data string of HSD*VS*2*DA*4*7*20~ = "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 HSD*VS*1*****SX*D~ means "1 visit on Wednesday and Thursday morning".
              Required when identifying services that have a specific pattern of delivery and the pattern of delivery or usage for this service is different from the pattern of delivery or usage (HSD) in the Patient Event (Loop 2000E). If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.

If not required by this implementation guide, do not send.
              Additional information requested at the Service level should apply to a specific service and/or all the services requested in this service loop.
              This PWK segment is required to identify attachments that are sent electronically (PWK02 = EL) but are transmitted in another X12 functional group rather than by paper or other medium. PWK06 is used to identify the attached electronic documentation. The number in PWK06 would be referenced in the electronic attachment.
              The information source can also use this PWK segment to identify paperwork that is held at the provider's office and is available upon request by the information receiver. Use code AA in PWK02 to convey this specific use of the PWK segment. See code note under PWK02, code AA.
            18. To provide a free-form format that allows the transmission of text information

              Free form text or description fields are not recommended because they require human interpretation.
