TIBCO Foresight® HIPAA Validator® Desktop Standards and Guidelines Reference
Manual
20 | Guideline Overview
GuideMerge ships in the Bin directory of EDISIM and Instream®.
We will merge Our837P with the corresponding types 1-7 guideline, which we look up in
. This gives us a guideline with all HIPAA rules plus our own rules
from Our837P. We call it P_Our837P:
Our837P + PDSA5010837P = P_Our837P
This follows the custom of putting a P in front of the EDISIM guideline to identify it as the
“production” guideline - the one to be used with the HIPAA products.

gives all the details. Let’s assume that we are doing the merge from a
machine that is running Instream. Here’s what we would do:
1. Copy Our837P from EDISIM’s User Files\Public Guideline directory to somewhere on
the Instream machine.
2. Run GuideMerge to create P_Our837P.std.
Using Merged Guidelines with Instream
Copy the resulting P_Our837P to Instream’s Database directory.
If you have made other changes associated with the guideline, such as changes to the
validation profile (APF), the customer error message file, external tables or databases, the
$dir.ini, etc., include these in Instream too.
We now have guidelines and associated files in these places:
