David and others:  unfortunately, these "tools" are still pretty clumsy.
For example, most physicians or office staff members would have a difficult
time interpreting the rule language defining a covered transaction, and
would still not get the message that they are covered should a business
partner, e.g. a billing service or third party administrator, engage in
electronic billing on the practice's behalf.  The "decision tool" would seem
to encourage a "going paper" route, at least in the short tem as a means to
excape HIPAA.  Clearly, this is unintended and not a route anyone should
wish to promote.   A good try, but it needs to be simpler and clearer if the
tools are going to be used and useful to medical practices.  DCK
