6 6 Healthcare EFT Standard Final Rule January 10, 2012, HHS issued Administrative Simplification: Adoption of Standards for Health Care Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Interim Final Rule (IFC) with 60 day comment period Established a healthcare EFT standard Established standard for remittance information Became final on July 10, 2012 (50 comments; no changes) Defined Health Care EFT as a transaction under HIPAA for the first time (45 CFR ) Identified NACHA CCD+ as the EFT standard (45 CFR )
7 7 Healthcare EFT Standard Final Rule Divided the EFT payment flow into three stages Stage 1 Payment Initiation Stage 2 Transfer of Funds Stage 3 Deposit Notification Health Plan (Originator) Treasury Stage 1 Payment Initiation Health Plan s Financial Institution (ODFI) Stage 2 Transfer of Funds Provider s Financial Institution (ODFI) Stage 3 Deposit Notification Provider (Receiver) Treasury Health care payment/processing information via EFT Claims Processing ERA Billing and Collections
8 8 Healthcare EFT Standard Final Rule Adoption of Standard for Data Content of the Addenda Record The CCD+Addenda must contain the TRN Reassociation Trace Number data segment as defined by X TR3 version 5010 (Implementation Guide) ~ ASC X12N V TRN*1*12345* * \ 0001NNNNNNN NACHA CCD+ Addenda
9 9 Healthcare EFT Standard Final Rule Allows for EFT s conducted outside the ACH Network The healthcare EFT standard does not apply to EFTs conducted outside the ACH Network Final rule neither prohibits nor adopts any standards for health care EFT transmitted outside the ACH Network. References use of both wire transfer and card payments BUT if a Provider requests use of the Healthcare EFT Standard, the Health Plan or Third Party Provider must use the CCD+ Addenda to deliver the claims reimbursement (subject to the Plan s established enrollment process)
10 10 CMS Frequently Asked Questions (07/12/12) Q. Are HIPAA covered entities required to use the ACH Network to transmit and receive health care claim payments by electronic funds transfer (EFT)? A. No. As of January 1, 2014, health plans and providers are not prohibited from using other networks such as Fedwire, card payment networks, etc. However, if a provider requests that a health plan conduct EFT using the ACH Network, the health plan is required to do so. Regardless of the network used, every effort should be made by the health plan to ensure that re-association between the payment and the remittance advice can be automated by providers.
11 Amendments to the NACHA Operating Rules to support Healthcare EFTs Define and establish a Health Care EFT Transaction A CCD Entry originated by a Health Plan to a Health Care Provider with respect to a health care claim Must have one Addenda Record that contains the ASC X TRN (Reassociation Trace Number) data segment in the Payment Related Information field Used for reassociating the EFT with an ERA Allows use of the tilde ~ as an EDI segment terminator TRN*1*12345* * ~ 0001NNNNNNN NACHA CCD+ Addenda
12 Amendments to the NACHA Operating Rules to support Healthcare EFTs Define and establish a Health Care EFT Transaction A CCD Entry originated by a Health Plan to a Health Care Provider with respect to a health care claim Must have one Addenda Record that contains the ASC X TRN (Reassociation Trace Number) data segment in the Payment Related Information field Used for reassociating the EFT with an ERA Allows use of the tilde ~ as an EDI segment terminator Standard transaction description of HCCLAIMPMT Standard identification of payer the name of the health plan as it is known by the provider 12
13 Amendments to the NACHA Operating Rules to support Healthcare EFTs Establish requirements for delivery of Reassociation Trace Number to providers using Non-Consumer Accounts Either automatically or upon request, the provider s financial institution must provide or make available the Reassociation Trace Number by the opening of business on the second banking day following the settlement date of the EFT The financial institution must offer an option to receive or access the Reassociation Trace Number via a secure, electronic means (minimum 128-bit RC4 encryption) Aligns with CORE rule on secure connectivity Aligns with existing NACHA rules on secure transmission of banking information 13
14 Amendments to the NACHA Operating Rules to support Healthcare EFTs The rules will become effective on September 20, 2013 Ensures financial institutions readiness to support Healthcare EFTs prior to January 1, 2014 compliance date for HHS regulations and Medicare EFT mandate Health plans can work toward implementation and compliance on all sets of regs/rules simultaneously Health plans can implement standard transaction description and identification earlier Financial institutions can offer services earlier to make reassociation trace numbers available to interested providers 14

35 35 New Definitions Applicable to Health Care New definitions include: CORE-required Minimum CCD+ Reassociation Data Elements Health Plan Healthcare EFT Transaction Healthcare Provider Non-Consumer Account
36 36 Impact of Rule Changes to ODFIs Ensure health plan originators comply with Rules Use of HCCLAIMPMT in Company Entry Description field Company Name field containing readily recognized information by Healthcare Provider (Receiver) Correct formatting in Addenda Record Indicator field Correct formatting in Payment Related Information field
37 37 Impact of Rule Changes to RDFIs Do you already have a product or service available for providing payment related information if it is requested? Does it include a secure, electronic delivery option? If no service is currently available develop one Work with third-party service providers or core vendors to determine capabilities (such as adding to the online banking platform) Both ACH Operators have EDI services available that facilitate delivery of the Addenda Record information Will your software accept the ~ as a data segment terminator?
38 38 Impact of Rule Changes to RDFIs If your organization holds accounts for healthcare entities, and receives payments on their behalf, you must comply with NACHA Operating Rules Healthcare Facilities Clinics Hospitals Local group homes Hospice facilities Nursing homes Rehabilitation facilities Medical schools Medical laboratories and testing facilities Pharmacies Practitioners Physicians Physical Therapists Chiropractors Dentists Optometrists/Ophthalmologists Psychologists/Psychiatrist Massage Therapists Midwives Nurses & Nurse Practitioners
39 39 Impact of Rule Changes to RDFIs What health plans are telling healthcare providers to request from RDFI CORE-required minimum CCD+ reassociation data elements Will the RDFI customer service staff understand this request?
40 40 Impact of Rule Changes to RDFIs It s all in the language Provider RTN = Reassociation Trace Number Trace Number = RTN Addenda =?? Bank RTN = Routing & Transit Number Trace Number = unique ACH transaction identifier Addenda = where the Reassociation Trace Number is located
41 41 Impact of Rule Changes to RDFIs What additional training needs to be provided to staff? Prepare for additional requests for payment related information Help staff to understand new language they may hear What opportunities are there to be proactive with healthcare provider customers? Direct these customers to specific pages on financial institution s website? Provide sign up form to these customers rather than waiting to receive request for payment related information?
42 42 Healthcare Opportunities Development Opportunities Potential new revenue opportunities Strengthened relationships with healthcare customers Expanded potential for EFT services for healthcare customers
43 Opportunity to Educate Healthcare Customers and Enhance Relationships 43 ACH and Treasury Management Services Physicians have expressed concern about unauthorized debits to account Debit Filter or Debit Block ACH Positive Pay ACH Origination collection of outstanding patient obligations Delivery of Remittance Information Reduce risk Improve back office administrative processes Educate your healthcare customers on the products and services available from your financial institution that can help them reduce processing time, funds availability and potentially overall costs of their back office processing
