You will have to use a search parameter as input for the sorting. For example sorting on last updated date descending would look like this:

GET [base]/ExplanationOfBenefit?_sort=-_lastUpdated

I'm not familiar with which field of ExplanationOfBenefit would hold the ClaimNumber you mention, but if you mean the EOB identifier, the request could be this:

GET [base]/ExplanationOfBenefit?_sort=identifier

If you use the correct syntax, success will still depend on whether the server has implemented sorting on that parameter.
