The Wave Translator by Wave-EDI is a program that converts your data to be HIPAA compliant in the ANSI 837 Professional format.
The ANSI 837 Professional format is the standard format for the electronic claims processing industry (Healthcare Information Technology)
The Wave Translator does not produce the medical claims, but simply “translates” them from one data format into another (load an input file and then output a file).
The goal of the Wave Translator is to make it easy to translate electronic medical claims from the widely used Print Image format (formerly known as the HCFA 1500 and now the CMS 1500) to the industry standard ANSI 837 Professional format.
The Wave Translator was designed to be the easiEST way to convert data into the ANSI 837p format without sending your data to a 3rd party for the conversion or having to do double data entry, which saves you time and money.
