Yes, Availity will support both of these new transaction sets in response to a 5010 version (only) even though HIPAA is not mandating their use at this time. The 999 will be available in an X12 and a human readable text format. Availity and other industry leaders believe that acknowledgments are important to the industry and standardization of these transactions will move the industry closer to achieving the administrative cost savings envisioned by the HIPAA legislation. Trading partners will be able to select these transactions beginning with our 5010 implementation.
