The health plans of self-insured employers are indeed Covered Entities and
subject to Electronic Transactions and Privacy Rules.  We have analyzed the
Rules and developed compliance materials.

Has anyone determined if/how self-insured employers are impacted by
HIPAA.  I am hearing that the health plan portion of the company must
comply with Rule 1.

Has anyone figured this out?
