HIPPA COMPLIANCE REMINDER

As everyone knows, NYS Department of Health (NYS DoH) has established October 6, 2004 as the HIPAA compliance deadline for submitting electronic claims and other electronic transactions in a HIPAA compliant format.   According to the letter from NYS DOH “after October 6, electronic claims transactions submitted in a non-HIPAA compliant format will not be paid.  Other electronic transactions submitted in a non-HIPAA compliant format will not be processed. “

The NYS DoH encourages all of Medicaid’s trading partners that have not achieved HIPAA compliance to continue their testing efforts.  We urge trading partners that have not begun their testing efforts to do so as soon as possible.

The NYS DoH and Computer Sciences Corporation are available to provide technical assistance to you and/or your vendors who may be struggling with their HIPAA conversion. Do not hesitate to contact them. Updates and help is provided at the following websites: www.nyhipaadesk.com and at www.emedny.org
