I'm going with B. ERISA plans are exempted from the standard, so they can do whatever they want, right? Wait, what's an ERISA plan again?

Ha! Option E is clearly a trick question. Of course state Medicaid programs need to meet the same requirements as private health plans. They're not some special snowflake.

I think option C is the correct answer. The data stored by a covered entity must meet the transaction standards if the covered entity is directly submitting standard transactions.
