Standardized Component-Based Medicaid Management Information System
Overview The federally mandated regulations of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) will require public and private sectors to change processes and information systems resulting in significant costs in order to achieve compliance within the specified timeframes. Section 1171(5)(E) of the Social Security Act, as enacted by HIPAA, identifies the State Medicaid programs as health plans, which therefore must be capable of receiving, processing, and sending standard transactions electronically. Therefore, one of the major impacts of HIPAA is on the Medicaid Management Information System (MMIS).
