WWWP HIPAA Companion Documents

WWWP providers who have a signed Trading Partner Agreement with Medicaid will be allowed to submit HIPAA compliant 837 transactions. Companion documents are intended for information technology and/or systems staff who will be coding billing systems or software for compliance with the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). The Companion Documents tell what elements must be submitted, optional by the national standard but required by the individual program on the 837 transaction for each program. These Implementation Guides define the electronic format and values for each data element within an electronic transaction.
