5010834 Files
Function of 834 Files Delta Dental prefers that full files are sent for eligibility. An 834 full file contains members that are currently eligible on the sponsors system and additions, terminations and changes for members that have incurred one of those activities since the last full file was sent to the Delta Dental.
This guide contains the 834 segments, elements and their values that Delta Dental requires to enroll and maintain member eligibility, as well as some optional segments. All valid HIPAA 5010 segments, elements and values are accepted by Delta Dental whether or not we use them. If HIPAA 5010 segments, elements and values other than what are shown in our guide are necessary to enroll and maintain member eligibility, it will have to be agreed upon by both parties prior to sending files.
