What is the difference between the TA1 Acknowledgment and the Claim Status Error report?
The TA1 Acknowledgement is an X12 file that is returned when there is an interchange error. No processing takes place when interchange errors exist (the 276 Inquiry transaction inside the interchange is not even read). The Claim Status Error report describes errors encountered in the 276 Inquiry transaction itself. It is a user-friendly version of the 997 Functional Acknowledgement.
