Designing accurate healthcare transaction guidelines is essential for effective information exchange with trading partners. Guidelines that are poorly designed or tested result in high transaction error rates, poor first-pass rates, long processing cycles, poor partner communications, and waste troubleshooting resources and time.

Edifecs SpecBuilder is a tightly integrated and intuitive design-time tool for business and EDI analysts that simplifies, reduces errors in and accelerates the design of the rules that govern healthcare transaction exchange.

Edifecs SpecBuilder enables comprehensive management of guidelines including easy creation, testing and troubleshooting of guidelines, publishing to trading partners, mapping between multiple standards and formats, and migration between different versions of healthcare standards. SpecBuilder provides over 30,000 pre-built templates to enable quick development and implementation of guidelines through customization of the out-of-the-box templates.

• Improve transaction quality and achieve compliance by defining and testing transactions in a desktop environment using pre-defined HIPAA and NCPDP guidelines and by adding business rules to guidelines.
• Reduce implementation time by using pre-defined guidelines, more easily troubleshooting errors, sharing error information in multiple formats and automatically migrating customizations between specifications.
• Achieve operational efficiencies and cost savings by using a single hierarchical editor that replaces separate tools for viewing, editing and searching data files; automatically generating both ‘happy path’ and negative test data directly from guidelines; and by generating test data from real-life data files (such as 5010 test data from 4010A1 production data).
• Streamline rollout of guidelines to trading partners by publishing in multiple formats, de-identifying shared data when necessary, and by testing partner data files against implementation guidelines
