SYSTEM AND METHOD OF MANAGING TESTING FOR A HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS TRANSITION

摘要

A system and a method for managing a health care systems transition are described. Transitions supported may include a migration from Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) 4010 standards set to the HIPAA EDI 5010 standards set. An example implementation describes selecting at least two test-case scenarios for inclusion in a test-case that models a healthcare systems transition, linking said scenarios, identifying test data associated with the test-case and, finally, generating an EDI file based on these scenarios and data. Additional embodiments disclosed may include inferring one or more scenarios from an EDI file and importing the scenarios thereby. Some embodiments additionally disclose the creation of a correlation database and identifying data instances for inclusion in the test-case thereby. Finally, in some embodiments, scenarios and data associated with a test-case may be predefined. Ref Fig.3
