Based on the knowledge that Hipaa is not meant to change the way a
organization conducts its business I would like to get  any feedback on the
following:

If a Hospital has within its contract with the payer that they will send
covered services on a bill and non-covered services on a separate bill and
instead they send all services on a single bill, is it still acceptable for
the payer to deny the claim containing both covered an non-covered services
and request the provider to split the claim and resubmit two. Technically we
did accept the claim into our adjudication system but now are denying based
on a business rule.

Thanks
