Filing electronically for Medicare:
New
rules were published today requiring all Medicare claims to be submitted electronically, with very limited exceptions, by October 16, 2003. If you're currently doing your Medicare claims on paper, check it out; you may need to go electronic.
Additionally, if you are a small provider that has avoided HIPAA compliance requirements by only doing paper transactions, this may have a big impact on you. You may still be able to do paper transactions, though. Something to look at.
