(August 2003) A: Detailed information on HIPAA compliant Medicaid transactions and code sets, including mental health service codes, is posted on New York State’s HIPAA Medicaid web site, at www.hipaadesk.com/?nymedicaid. The 837 Institutional NYSDOH Companion Guide and 837 Institutional NYSDOH Supplementary Guide provide technical details for HIPAA implementation and instructions on how to program HIPAA compliant billing software. Medicaid providers and billing vendors are also urged to visit the eMedNY HIPAA site at http://www.emedny.com/HIPAA/Steps/index.html for guidance and tips on what to do to get ready for HIPAA compliant transactions with NYS Medicaid.
