How to Create Tables

In order to facilitate the development, HIPAA Authorizer allows you to create the staging tables for your database where HIPAA Authorizer will export the claim data.

Before data export, you need to create the tables through SQL table statements. You can do it using the built-in function of the HIPAA Authorizer. Creating these tables is a quite intimidating task. Once you have your connection defined and tested, follow the instructions below.

Note: The tables are created via the "Drop Table" and "Create Table" commands. The scripts come from two files: EDI_AuthorizerHeader.sql and EDI_AuthorizerDetails.sql that are distributed with the application. Please, contact HIPAAsuite if you need help with the database setup.

1.Go to Database > Table Creation in the main menu window.

Within the "Database" box, the user may select one of four Database options, as listed below:

oMicrosoft SQL Server

oMySQL/Generic

oDB2

 

What if I do not have the Databases mentioned in the next sections?

 

There are four Database types the HIPAA Authorizer supports:

oMicrosoft SQL Server

oMySQL/Generic

oOracle

oDB2

 

In the following sections, you will see the scripts for each Database type. If you have a database that is not mentioned here, we recommend two options:

oHave a database administrator change the scripts to work.

oCreate the fields in your database administration tool according to the specifications in the scripts.

 

Scripts

On the following tabs there are SQL scripts used to create the appropriate tables:

EDI_AuthorizerHeader Tables Script

EDI_AuthorizerDetails Tables Script

StoredReceiver Tables Script

StoredPatient Tables Script

StoredProvider Tables Script

COMPANY_SETUP Tables Script

Tip: You can modify the scripts so that they run on your specific database and to conform to your database's specific SQL syntax. For each script, click "Save."

 

The "Save" button.

The "Save" button.

 

For each script, click "Execute Script" to create the corresponding table in the database.

Warning: If the database tables already exist, executing the “Create Table” scripts will drop and recreate those tables. This means:

All existing data in those tables will be permanently lost.

Any customizations made to the table structure will be overwritten.

 

Table already exists.
