HIPAA X12 standards, version 5010, is a new standard that regulates the electronic transmission of specific health care transactions. Covered entities – health plans, health care clearinghouses, and health care providers – must conform to HIPAA 5010 standards by January 1, 2012.

HNE is committed to working with our trading partners to support the migration from HIPAA 4010 to HIPAA 5010. We developed the timeline included in this document to ensure that we meet the January 1, 2012 deadline. Please review the timeline which outlines when we plan to begin testing each HIPAA 5010 transaction with you, our trading partners. 

To help make this transition as smooth as possible, we have designated a contact person for each transaction type. If you have any questions or identify any issues as you go about your testing, please contact the individual identified in the table at the end of this document.   If you have any questions please feel free to contact HNE.
