Healthcare Reform-First legislators addressed access and insurance coverage, what is next? What delivery system reforms can we expect?

Affordable Care Act, Section 1104-This act, part of the Health Reform bill, adjusts HIPAA’s administrative simplification provisions by requiring the Secretary of Health and Human services to adopt standards for health care transactions which enable point-of-care eligibility determinations; minimize the need for paper attachments to claims submissions; describe all data elements (including reason and remark codes) in unambiguous terms, require that such data elements be required or conditioned upon set values in other fields, and prohibit additional conditions (except where necessary to implement State or Federal law, or to protect against fraud and abuse). How will this adjustment affect your organization?
Medical Loss Ratio-Once strictly an internal metric used only by payers, this financial statistic is a key ingredient of the 2010 healthcare legislation. What role will this metric play in your organization? .
