Transmission Requirements

20.1 - Transmission Requirements (Rev. 2937, Issued; 04-25-14, Effective: 04-14-14, Implementation: 04-14-14) A/B MACs, DME MACs, and CEDI may continue to operate automated response unit (ARU) capability for providers to request and receive claim status information. ARUs are not considered EDI and are not affected by the HIPAA requirements. Nor do they impact response time requirements for the standard transactions implemented under HIPAA.
