	WASHINGTON, June 20, 2012—The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a reminder last week that the enforcement discretionary period for upgrading to Version 5010 ends Sunday, July 1. Originally, all HIPAA-covered entities doing business with CMS were required to upgrade to Version 5010 by Jan. 1, but CMS provided additional time to meet full compliance with transaction standards for ASC X12 Version 5010 and NCPDP Versions D.0 and 3.0. www.cms.gov.
