If this file is used for enrollment, yes it needs to follow the format. But, in the case that this file is not being used for enrollment, but as a report of members enrolled, I'm not sure. I hope someone can answer that portion of the question.

But, I would appreciate any guidance. Here is the situation. A self-funded health plan sends a monthly electronic enrollment roster to its plan administrator. That roster contains personal information on individuals being added to and deleted from the health plan. I know this roster must meet privacy and security requirements. My question is: Must this roster be formatted to meet HIPAA EDI transaction requirements? Thanks in advance for any help. Si Nahra
