EDI (Claim Files) to Excel Conversion
(Note - please excuse me if I am not using correct terminology... hopefully I'm still making some sense)
Hi there,
I work in healthcare, have been asked to convert 837 ANSI claim files into an excel readable format for reporting but am not having any luck using open source clients/tools from the web. When I do, they are either just readers or else the excel file appears to be missing data that the EDI file contains.
Could someone, anyone (!), please provide any input on why converting these claim files is not so... straightforward?
A friend told me something about EDI being in a sort of hierarchical data format, with every value essentially 'tagged' but not exactly sure what that means except that the mapping is confusing the hell out of me.
Any input, info, anything is greatly appreciated!!! THank you for reading
