title: Preparing for the looming EDI standards mandates.
abstract: Tucked away inside the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 are administrative simplification provisions that could have profound consequences for providers and payers alike at the turn of the century. Health care organizations must prepare now to comply with the mandates for using standards for electronic claims and related transactions. This special report offers sound advice and also includes exclusive electronic claims statistics from Faulkner & Gray's 1999 Health Data Directory.
