Final rule published on electronic claims
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has published a final rule on electronic submission of Medicare claims under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, identifying the circumstances for which mandatory submission of electronic claims to the Medicare program is waived.
