William,
I agree, but it seems to be the closest thing to it. NSF
had the same problem (see EA0-37).
In Appendix E of the 837P guide, I found this description of
CLM06:
"An indicator that the provider of service reported on this
claim and authorizes payment, and that a signature is on file in the provider's
office."
I don't think it's entirely what that "certification" is
asking for, but, it seems to be as close as we'll get without a physical or
digital signature. Of course, requiring a physical signature defeats the
purpose of EDI.
The opinions expressed here are my own and not necessarily the opinion of
LCMH.

Or what about including the certification as part of the
trading partner agreement or some other written contract or
agreement? I don't think CLM06 is the same thing as Jerry's "section
438.606" certification.

Jerry, Since HIPAA hasn't yet embraced Digital
Signatures, CLM06 = 'Y' will have to suffice. This is 'Provider
Signature on File' which to my way of thinking translates to the
certification you're looking for.

HIPAA trxs
Does anyone have any ideas on how to comply with
section BBA Medicare/Medicaid regs, section 438.606, which requires that
data be certified as ..."to the accuracy, completeness and truthfulness of
the data", and requires the certification to be sent "concurrently with
the certified data" ? How can I put such a certification in, for example,
an 837P?
Thanks for any ideas,
Jerry
