277 Line Item Response Question:

On page 36 of the 276/277 Implementation Guide, section 2.2.3.6 (Line Item Response), 
there is a statement that says,

"use loop ID-2220 when a request for claim status information is made specifying the 
line level, and the payer is able to accommodate claim status response at the line 
level."

Doe this mean that if a payer chooses not to respond at the line level to a claim 
status inquiry, or it is not able to accommodate certain line-level data elements, it 
does not have to?

Are payers required under HIPAA to respond at the line level to claim status inquiries?

Any comments are welcomed!

Thanks,
Paul
