Wait, the National Health Identifier isn't your social security number? Mind blown!

Reducing security breaches is a great objective, but I don't think that's the main goal of the Transaction Rule. E is a bit off the mark.

HIPAA doesn't require plans to accept every single code set. That's just too much. D is incorrect.

PPOs are definitely covered by the definition of 'health plan' for HIPAA purposes. C is wrong.

The CDT code set is maintained by the American Dental Association, not the AMA. Definitely not B.

I'm pretty sure the social security number is not the National Health Identifier. That's gotta be option A.

I see your point, but I still think D makes more sense because it's important for health plans to accept valid codes for consistency.
