Subject:        RE: Covered Entity Tool

 

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

CMS has a new tool on its website.  
If you have any questions regarding your status as a covered entity (provider, 
clearinghouse or health plan), you should check out this decision tree.
