Answer 1

HLA7s initial involvement in HIPAA began in 1996. The Attachment Special Interest Group was formed to standardize the supplemental information needed to support health care insurance, and other e-commerce transactions. SIG coordinates industry input to produce and maintain guides for HL7 messages.
