1) HIPAA adoption of industry standard transactions
[a.k.a. X12N Implementation Guides and NCPDP Standards]
(a) Modified standards -- "no more frequently than once
every twelve months" {45 CFR 160.104 (a)}
(b) New standards -- at any time
2) Code Sets
(a) Code Sets internal to adopted industry standard
transactions -- presently the same as 1(a) above
(b) Code Sets external to adopted industry standard
transactions -- solely at the discretion of the
organization which maintains each code set
3) Too varied to discuss in an e-mail.

Subject: can you remember the potential frequency of X12N version &
codeset changes/updates ?
Hello, TCS Gurus.
1) RE: X12N version in use: Anyone remember easily (I know it's
buried in the regs, but am time-pressed) the potential/practical
frequency with which new X12 versions can be adopted?
Is it every 6 months, (3 month comment + 3 month effective date ) or
some other timeframe?
2) Also - same question for codesets.
3) Finally - anyone have a practical reality check on the
'official' time frames?
Thanks In advance-
Rob
