Does my organization have to send the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) information regarding its readiness for compliance?
MDH does not require any particular information at this time from either payers or providers regarding their readiness to comply with Minnesota Statutes, section 62J.536. In an effort to facilitate standard, electronic transactions, MDH has recently conducted voluntary surveys of payers to obtain information regarding points of contact for questions about establishing electronic connections, names of clearinghouses and vendors, and other information to post on its website. The usefulness of these surveys and the need for possible additional required submissions of readiness status and other information to aid implementation of the rules is being evaluated.
