| The Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) requires covered entities
(healthcare plans, payers, providers and clearinghouses) to conduct electronic
healthcare transactions in a standard format. The federal government has issued
rules to implement HIPAA, including the Transaction Rule, which mandates the
specific format for certain electronic transactions. |
