Rule Chapter 69L of the Florida Administrative Code is the EDI Rule for Proof of Coverage and Claims (non-medical)
6
EDI Rule 69L-56,F.A.C. was effective January 7, 2007.
It requires all insurers to implement the IAIABC Claims EDI Release 3 electronic format.
7
EDI Rule 69L-56 F.A.C. This EDI Implementation applies to all required form filings for all Dates of Injuries, and not just those injuries that occur after the Insurer’s EDI Implementation date. This includes legacy claims.
8
So Here’s A Little Background On EDI …
9
On a National level, in 1990 the IAIABC spearheaded a program
to utilize the concept of EDI for Workers’ Compensation data.
10
What is the IAIABC? The International Association of Industrial Accident Boards and Commissions. A 93-year-old organization of jurisdictional workers’ compensation administrators and others interested in WC.
11
What is EDI? Electronic Data Interchange is the electronic exchange of data between business trading partners (i.e., claim administrators to state agencies), in a standardized format. This does not include reporting by Injured Workers! EDI
12
Bringing Together the Important Participants
Developing an Electronic Standard Bringing Together the Important Participants Jurisdictions Carriers Vendors TPA’s
13
Developing a National Standard through the IAIABC EDI Development Committees was a “consensus development” process that required “give” and “take” from all participants.
14
The end result is a national standard format for the reporting of workers’ compensation data electronically.
15
IAIABC EDI Project Background
1990: IAIABC membership adopted IAIABC Committee’s proposal to develop standards for communicating data electronically between providers, payers, and state administrators via EDI. 1993: Claims Release 1 2000: Claims Release 2 (Iowa) 2005: Claims Release 3 Culmination of 4 yrs of work – list how many people have been involved – level of care & detail
16
Where can you find the IAIABC R3 Implementation Guide & Codes?
17
The Release 3 Claims Implementation Guide can be purchased for $95 from the IAIABC’s website: or it is free if your company is an IAIABC EDI Member. The latest R Guide is dated January 1, 2008

Glossary The purpose of the Glossary is to acquaint the reader with easy-to-understand definitions of workers' compensation terms that are not defined in the R3 Dictionary as Data Elements.
26
Glossary The Glossary defines terms that are common to FROI/SROI, MED, and POC EDI reporting. Not all of the terms are directly related to one of the IAIABC EDI reporting products, but they are commonly used in the business and data reporting environment.
27
Glossary Alphabetical by term
28
However, terms that are specific to ‘approved’ Data Elements for Claims, POC and Med reporting will be found in the Data Dictionary section of the respective IAIABC Implementation Guide.

Questions?
49
In R3 EDI, all WC data is sent electronically via a
FROI or SROI transaction.
50
What Is A ? FROI
51
First Report of Injury (FROI)
52
Release 3 FROI Transaction
Originally, the EDI First Report of Injury Record was identified by a Transaction Set ID of '148' and had a specific Record Layout. In Release 3, the 148 record must be paired with a companion record - R21, FROI Companion Record to complete the First Report of Injury transaction.
53
Release 3 FROI Transaction
This means the Release 3 FROI transaction requires 2 records to communicate the First Report event, the “148” & “R21” records.
54
First Report of Injury FROI =148 + R21

114
EDI filing requirements (i. e
EDI filing requirements (i.e., when a claim administrator must file these EDI transactions with DWC) are in Rule 69L-56, F.A.C. Paper form copies required to be sent to other parties will still be required per Rule 69L-3, F.A.C.
115
How Will MTC’s and Insurers Be “Phased In” for Implementing EDI R3?
116
EDI Claims R3 Implementation
The Division has established by rule two implementation schedules for “phasing in” all of the MTC’s required for R3 reporting: The Primary Implementation Schedule includes MTC’s for reporting the electronic equivalent of the DWC-1, 12, 13 & 49 & some DWC-4 data. The Secondary Implementation Schedule includes MTC’s that equate to most DWC-4’s.
117
EDI Claims R3 Implementation
Again, implementation of EDI R3 applies to all MTC’s required by rule for all Dates of Injuries, not just for dates of injuries occurring after the Insurer’s R3 production implementation date. Legacy claims are included in the mandate.
118
EDI Claims R3 Implementation
Paper forms previously filed do NOT need to be re-submitted electronically.
119
EDI Claims R3 Implementation
The Division has divided insurers/self-insurers into three ‘test to production’ periods (tiers), based on Insurer Code #. Insurer Code #’s and current R1 Trading Partners will implement first. Insurer Code #’s will implement next. Insurer Code #’s and will implement last.
120
EDI Claims R3 Implementation
If there are multiple subsidiary insurer entities within an insurer’s corporate structure / organization, the insurer’s compliance date for the Primary Implementation Schedule will be based on the lowest numeric value assigned to any of the subsidiary insurer entities in the group.
121
For Example (Old Reliable Group): Old Reliable Ins Co. = # 145
Old Reliable P&C Co. = # 328 Old Reliable of Illinois = # 733 All insurers in the Old Reliable Group are required to file electronically in the first group of the Primary Implementation Schedule. They must begin testing on
122
EDI Claims R3 Implementation
Third Party Administrators (TPAs) are not included in this list because they are not ‘Insurers’. However, a TPA must be ready to comply with the EDI filing requirements as soon as their first Insurer client is required to comply.
123
EDI Claims R3 Implementation
Third Party Administrators (TPAs) are not required to implement all of their insurer clients at the same time, but….
124
EDI Claims R3 Implementation
…the 30 day initial late filing penalty waiver in rule 69L (d), is only applicable to the “claim administrator” as a whole at the time it first implements R3 EDI filings.
125
EDI Claims R3 Implementation
Therefore, if a claim administrator implements R3 EDI for different clients at different times, the subsequent clients will not be granted a separate 30 day late filing penalty waiver.
126
Claims EDI Primary Implementation Schedule Phase In:
The first group (Insurer Code #s ) began testing November 1, 2007, and are being phased in to production beginning First Group Must Begin Testing: First Group Phased In Production:
127
Claims EDI Primary Implementation Schedule Phase In:
The second group (Insurer Code #s ) must begin testing February 1, 2008, and be in production no later than the last day of the 3rd month after the testing period begins. Second Group Must Begin Testing: Second Group Must Be In Production:
128
Claims EDI Primary Implementation Schedule Phase In:
The third group (Insurer Code #s and ) must begin testing May 1, 2008, and be in production no later than the last day of the 3rd month after the testing period begins. Third Group Must Begin Testing: Third Group Must Be In Production:
129
What ‘Forms’ Will Be Required To Be Electronically Submitted In The Claims EDI Release 3 Primary Implementation Schedule?
130
The Claims EDI R3 Primary Implementation Schedule will include the electronic form equivalents for:
First Report of Injury (DWC-1) Notice of Denial (DWC-12) Claim Cost Report (DWC-13) Aggregate Claims Administration Change Report (DWC-4 or DWC-49) Notice of Action/Change (certain fields) (DWC-4)
131
What MTC’s Will Be Required in the Claims EDI Release 3 Primary Implementation Schedule?
132
Claims EDI R3 Required MTC’s First Report of Injury (FROI):
The following Maintenance Type Codes (MTC’s) are required to be implemented during the Primary Implementation Schedule for the First Report of Injury (FROI): MTC’s 00, 01, 02, 04, AQ, & AU (Definitions of MTC’s are in the IAIABC R3 Implementation Guide/Data Dictionary).
133
Claims EDI R3 Required MTC’s
The following Maintenance Type Codes (MTC’s) are required to be implemented for the Primary Implementation Schedule for the Subsequent Report (SROI): MTC’s IP, EP, AP, PY, PD, CD, VE, 02, 04, SA & FN
134
FL requires both the FROI and SROI combination filing to constitute the electronic form equivalent of a DWC-1 reporting initial payment or ‘equivalent’ information.
135
Claims EDI R3 Required MTC’s
SROI Maintenance Type Codes (MTC’s) required by FL to be filed with a FROI MTC (00 or AU) to report the initial payment or equivalent are: IP, EP, PY, PD, CD, VE, & AP
136
Some data elements from the DWC-4 will be required to be sent during the Primary Implementation Schedule, because of the design of the record layout.
137
These required DWC-4 data elements are identified in the EDI Rule 69L , F.A.C., and some examples follow….
138
Example DWC-4 Changes Required in Primary Implementation
Claim Administrator Postal Code not due to change in claims administration Industry Code Manual Classification Code Employee SSN Employee First/Last Name, Last Name Suffix, Middle Name/Initial Date of Injury
139
Claims EDI R3 Secondary Implementation Schedule Phase In:
The insurer should begin testing the remainder of DWC-4 related MTC’s no later than 9 months after the its compliance date associated with the Primary Implementation Schedule, and be in production status no later than 1 quarter after the required testing start date.
140
Claims EDI R3 Secondary Implementation Schedule Phase In:
1st Group’s (Insurer Code #s ) Primary Implementation Schedule compliance date = First Group Must Begin Testing for the Secondary Implementation Schedule: First Group Must Be in Production for the Secondary Implementation Schedule:
141
Claims EDI Secondary Implementation Schedule Phase In:
2nd Group’s (Insurer Code # ) Primary Implementation Schedule compliance date = Second Group Must Begin Testing for the Secondary Implementation Schedule: Second Group Must Be in Production for the Secondary Implementation Schedule:
142
Claims EDI Secondary Implementation Schedule Phase In:
3rd Group’s (Insurer Code #s and ) Primary Implementation Schedule compliance date = Third Group Must Begin Testing for the Secondary Implementation Schedule: Third Group Must Be in Production for the Secondary Implementation Schedule:
143
Claim Administrator’s can voluntarily send MTC’s required in the Secondary Implementation Schedule (most DWC-4’s) during the Primary Implementation Schedule.
144
What MTC’s Will Be Required in the Claims EDI Release 3 Secondary Implementation Schedule?
145
Claims EDI MTC’s Required Subsequent Report (SROI):
The following Maintenance Type Codes (MTC’s) are required to be implemented for the Secondary Implementation Schedule for the Subsequent Report (SROI): 02, P7, S1-S8, CA, CB, AB, RB, & ER

Questions?
154
How Will EDI Errors Be Communicated to Claim Administrators?
155
The Division will acknowledge every EDI R3 transaction received with the standard EDI Acknowledgement format: ‘AKC’. AKC Report
156
Transmissions received on or before 9:00 p. m. , E. S. T
Transmissions received on or before 9:00 p.m., E.S.T., will be processed by DWC the same day the transmission was sent. It will be acknowledged the next calendar day (morning).
157
Transmissions received after 9:00 p. m
Transmissions received after 9:00 p.m. EST will be processed by DWC the following calendar day. It will be acknowledged the day after the transmission is processed.
158
FL processes transmissions 7 days a week, including holidays.
159
The ‘AKC’ acknowledgement will identify how many transactions passed edits (TA -Transaction Accepted); how many failed edits (TR -Transaction Rejected); and the specific error(s) that caused the transaction to reject.
160
FL does not use the TE – “Transaction Accepted with Errors” Acknowledgement Code.
161
If a transaction is improperly rejected by the Division, the entire batch will be re-processed and re-acknowledged using the ‘ARC’ Acknowledgement format (see the technical training PowerPoint for more details on the Acknowledgement Process)
162
The Claim Administrator will receive credit for the date the transaction was originally received by the Division.
163
FL provides EDI Claim Administrators the capability of viewing all FROI’s & SROI’s received, via the on-line Claims EDI Data Warehouse.
164
The on-line Claims EDI Data Warehouse will assist claim administrators in resolving EDI errors faster, and may also assist in resolving issues with the Centralized Performance System (CPS). Claims EDI Warehouse
165
More detailed information regarding the on-line Claims EDI Data Warehouse will be provided later in the training. Claims EDI Warehouse

An Event is a business circumstance that occurs in the life of a WC Claim which requires the reporting of EDI information to DWC. These circumstances reflect FL’s requirements, including: First Report of Injury events Subsequent Report events Periodic events
173
FL identifies all of the transactions (MTC’s) that are required for reporting specific business events on its Event Table.
174
Interpreting the FL Event Table
Example: Florida requires the submission of a FROI MTC 00 for First Reports of Injury or Illness based on the insurer’s mandate date …
175
Interpreting the FL Event Table
… when disability is immediate & continuous & lost time is greater than seven (7) days.
176
Interpreting the FL Event Table
The filing must receive a TA within 21 calendar days after the claim administrator’s knowledge of the injury.
177
Interpreting the FL Event Table
A DWC-1 or IA-1 (ACORD 4) form must also be sent to the employee & employer
178
Periodic (Claim Cost) Reports
In addition to reporting “typical” business claim Events, FL requires the claim administrator to report the “cost status” of the claim via Periodic (Claim Cost) Reports

FL SCENARIO ASSUMPTIONS
General scenario assumptions are included in the scenarios to assist in understanding the sample data that is presented.
194
FL SCENARIO ASSUMPTIONS
The FL Scenarios were enhanced from the IAIABC scenarios in the R3 Implementation Guide. All the 2001 dates were moved forward to 2007 (the next year where all dates fell on the same day of the week).
195
FL SCENARIO ASSUMPTIONS
Calculated Weekly Compensation Amount is the Comp. Rate, and is 66 2/3% of the Average Wage. The statutory comp rate max is not accurate per FL law.
196
FL SCENARIO ASSUMPTIONS
Scenarios are presented in uppercase text. However, data may be sent to FL in mixed case format. Payment of indemnity benefits is based upon a 5 day work week The Industry Code must be a 2002 or 2007 NAICS code.
197
FL SCENARIO ASSUMPTIONS
FL Scenarios contain required sample data elements pertinent to the scenario. These data are identified as “M” (Mandatory) or “MC” (Mandatory/Conditional) on the FL Element Requirement Table.
198
FL SCENARIO ASSUMPTIONS
Additional data elements may be present in the scenario if they are identified as “IA” (If Applicable/Available) on the Element Requirement Table (e.g., Middle Initial and Suffix).
199
FL SCENARIO ASSUMPTIONS
Although Claim Administrators may send additional data elements marked “NA” (Not Applicable), such data will not be edited or loaded by FL, and therefore not presented in the scenarios.
