Health Care Provider: Use of Proprietary System
(a)
The commission may recognize a health care provider’s proprietary electronic visit verification system, whether purchased or developed by the provider, as complying with this subchapter and allow the health care provider to use that system for a period the commission determines if the commission determines that the system:(1)
complies with all necessary data submission, exchange, and reporting requirements established under this subchapter; and(2)
meets all other standards and requirements established under this subchapter.(b)
If feasible, the executive commissioner shall ensure a health care provider is reimbursed for the use of the provider’s proprietary electronic visit verification system the commission recognizes.(c)
For purposes of facilitating the use of proprietary electronic visit verification systems by health care providers and in consultation with industry stakeholders and the work group established under Section 532.0259 (Stakeholder Input), the commission or the executive commissioner, as appropriate, shall:(1)
develop an open model system that mitigates the administrative burdens providers required to use electronic visit verification identify;(2)
allow providers to use emerging technologies, including Internet-based, mobile telephone-based, and global positioning-based technologies, in the providers’ proprietary electronic visit verification systems; and(3)
adopt rules governing data submission and provider reimbursement.
