Abstract: Technologies are provided for automatically comparing versions of a regulatory document and highlighting meaningful changes to each version of the regulatory document. An analysis engine accepts two inputs of a regulatory document in HTML format. One input is an original version of the regulatory document and one input is a revised version of the regulatory document. The documents are processed by the analysis engine to highlight added content as compared to the original version of the HTML content and the second document being processed to highlight removed content as compared to the revised version of the HTML content. These highlighted documents are then presented to the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to electronically generate an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) 835 transmission to test an EDI 835 processing system. An EDI 835 transmission may include vast amounts of data that are input into the transmission in a unique way. If even one space is off, the EDI 835 transmission will not be correctly processed and may be kicked back by the system. This has serious consequences, as it may result in incorrect or non-recording of a payment on a claim. Unfortunately, most systems are not tested for EDI 835 processing capabilities before going live due to the time intensive nature of generating EDI 835 transmissions for testing. The present application describes one or more innovative ways to electronically generate one or more EDI 835 transmission.
