David, sorry for being late on this but isn't compliancy is in accordance to X12N standard?, and HIPAA is just another industry that adheres to a particular standard such as the aforementioned? If a transaction fails compliancy, it should error out and be placed somewhere (a suspended data set??). In order words it should not even get out the door? Your thoughts?
