A few weeks ago I wrote a short blog about the recently released statistics on the adoption rate of HIPAA transactions compiled by CAQH for the calendar year of 2013. This report is called the 2014 CAQH index and is available through the CAQH web site (http://www.caqh.org/) or directly through this link:
http://www.caqh.org/pdf/2014Index.pdf
This study is actually the second year in a row where they collected this data so in addition to providing adoption rates for 2013, the data for 2012 is available as well along with a measurement of change in the adoption rate of these transactions over a year.
Here are the adoption rates for the two years for the three most common standardized healthcare electronic transactions:
Claim Submission | 2012 | 90.2% | 2013 | 91.8% | Change | +1.46% |
Eligibility | 2012 | 64.7% | 2013 | 65.3% | Change | +0.6% |
Remittance Advice | 2013 | 42.7% | 2013 | 46.4% | Change | +3.7% |
