Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is an act that requires entities including health plans providers, health care clearinghouses, and health care providers to adopt standards for electronically conducting administrative transactions like claims, remittances, and claims status requests.
Beginning on January 1, 2012, a federal mandate requires health plans, clearinghouses, and providers to use new standards in electronically conducting certain health care administrative transactions at the heart of daily operations. This includes transactions like claims, remittance, eligibility, and claims status requests and responses. Upgrading from the current HIPAA 4010A1 transaction standards to the new 5010 standards addresses several key goals:
As the deadline approaches, affected health care organizations need to upgrade and test their claims management systems to accommodate 5010 and prevent operational disruptions. HIPAA 5010 is the next step towards improved national healthcare transaction standards. Its main intention is to economize billions of dollars by altering the complex process of claims administration and payments through a single standard for healthcare transactions. HIPAA 5010 is going to bring a significant growth in improving the efficiency and reducing the maintenance costs to large extent for organizations planning to meet federal government regulations and deadlines quickly. HIPAA 5010 will have huge business and operational impact on all the stakeholders in health care industry.
