How Does this Impact Your Organization?
This may sound like you have an extended deadline to become 5010 compliant. But it is simply advising that there will be a 90-day grace period before enforcement actions will be taken.
The CMS announcement does not change Gateway EDI’s transition plan to meet the January 1, 2012 compliance date. We will continue assisting clients to reach 5010 standards by the deadline.
