Rule R358-1

Electronic Standards for Transmitting Information through the Health Insurance Exchange

Five-Year Notice of Review and Statement of Continuation

DAR File No.: 42168
Filed: 09/29/2017 11:31:27 AM

NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Section 63N-11-107 requires that the consumer health office adopt administrative rules that establish uniform electronic standards for insurers, employers, brokers, consumers, and vendors to use when transmitting or receiving information, uniform applications, waivers of coverage, or payments to, or from, the Health Insurance Exchange more commonly known as Avenue H.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

There has not been any written comments provided in the last five years regarding this rule.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

The legislature has chosen to gradually unwind Avenue H with a complete shutdown of the program by 06/30/2018. This rule needs to remain in place until that time because Avenue H needs the standards for electronic sharing of information in place until the program is closed out. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
