DBIA2643    ICR (2643)

Since March 1994, the Integrated Billing package has
retained full authority for the INSURANCE TYPE (#2.312) sub-file and the field
COVERED BY HEALTH INSURANCE? (#.3192), both located in the PATIENT (#2) file.
In addition the INS node references the INSURANCE - NON-POLICY INFO for each
patient. Fields related to non-policy related insurance will be stored on this
node. This authority includes development of the data dictionary (DD) for
these fields, as well as responsibility for data entry into and data retrieval
from these fields.

This agreement is a "delegation of custody" of these fields from Registration
to Integrated Billing.  It provides Integrated Billing all rights and
privileges to development and distribution for all DD elements and data in
these fields.  In addition, all DBIAs required for access to the DD and data
for these fields will be between any subscriber and Integrated Billing as the
custodian.
