837P Errata





The Standards Development Organizations have made
corrections to the 5010 and D.0 versions of certain transactions.
The Errata versions replace the Base versions for HIPAA
compliance. Per the Federal Register (Vol. 75, No. 197, October
13, 2010, 62684–62686 [2010–25684] found at
http://www.access.gpo.gov/su_docs/aces/fr-cont.html)
HIPAA compliance will require the implementation of the Errata
versions and the Base versions for those transactions not
affected by the Errata.
Compliance with the Errata must be achieved by the original
regulation compliance date of January, 2012.
Medicare FFS will implement the Errata versions to meet HIPAA
compliance requirements.
