Moving to 5010

“The Centers for Medicaid & Medicare Services (CMS) has provided guidance that they will delay the ‘enforcement’ of the 5010 mandate through March, 2012. Neighborhood Health Plan of Rhode Island will be 5010 compliant by 12/31/2011 but will continue to support the processing of 4010 transaction types until 3/31/12. Please know that we will no longer support the 4010 format after 3/31/2012. Neighborhood will continue to work with each trading partner to determine appropriate transaction type cut over dates.  If you have any questions regarding 5010 testing, please email 5010Certification@nhpri.org.”
