title: HIPAA's transactions regulations. Where are we today?
abstract: By now, the health care industry is feeling the effects of the implementation of the Standards for Electronic Transactions promulgated under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). The standards, or transaction rule, have been substantially in final form since Aug. 17, 2000, but it has taken the industry every bit of the allotted time period, including a one-year extension, to work through the technical and interpretative issues to meet the Oct. 16, 2003, compliance deadline.
