  description: >-
    The canonical Availity claim status flow, modeled on the X12 276/277 health
    care claim status request and response transaction set. A 276 inquiry is
    submitted for a previously filed claim and the job is polled until the payer
    returns a finalized 277 status response carrying the claim's disposition.
    Every step inlines its request so the flow is self-contained.
