This chapter describes how to configure Integration Server to process inbound HIPAA acknowledgments such as TA1 technical acknowledgments, 997 functional acknowledgments, and 999, 824, 277U, and 277A acknowledgments.

The HIPAA standard does not mandate how you process acknowledgments. Typically, you would map data from the acknowledgment to another document format, which you could then return to an external system. For more information about this mapping process, see the webMethods Module for HIPAA 9.0 Sample Package User's Guide .
