Data SnapShot - Activity

Activity

Unlike many of the other files included in a Data Snapshot, the Activity file holds information related to two sets of records:
  • Claim billing activity
  • Patient statement activity
Because both of these sets of information are included in the same file, it is essential to use the TRANTYPE column to distinguish the records related to billed claims from the records related to patient statements.
