EDI 256 Periodic Compensation

July 20th, 2018

What is an EDI 256 Periodic Compensation Document?

EDI 256 is an electronic document containing information about periodic compensation. This X12 transaction set can be used for transmitting and reporting information related to compensation. 

It is commonly used for the following purposes:  

  • To report compensation amounts 
  • To report compensation earned 
  • To report the paid compensation 
  • To report any adjustments and balances to the compensation 

An EDI solution is required to map data to EDI 256 format, as well as to parse the EDI messages received and convert it into the required format.

EDI 256 falls under the category of X12N Insurance transaction sets. The transaction set is used by various entities to exchange information related to periodic compensation. It is also used alongside other transaction sets to send or receive information related to compensation.
