Implementation of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Version 5010 - MAC Jurisdictions 10 and 14 Only
The purpose of this Change Request (CR) is to provide direction to
specific Part A and Part B (A/B) Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) which are, as of this time, in
a position to implement 5010. Specifically, Jurisdiction 10 (J10) and J14 are instructed to prepare their
systems to process ASC X12 Version 005010 transactions as previously issued CR 6472, which addressed
J1, J3, J4, J5, J13, and CEDI. Other A/B MACs, not currently in a position to implement 5010, currently in
Corrective Action Plan (CAP), or under a protest condition need not reply. Specifically, J2, J6, J7, J8, J9,
J11, J12, and J15 are not affected by this CR. A future CR will address these MAC jurisdictions.
