Background:

Rulemaking authority and procedure.MinnesotaStatutes,section62J.61,establishesarulemakingprocedureforadoptingrulestoimplementtheMinnesotaHealthCareAdministrativeSimplificationAct,MinnesotaStatutes,sections62J.50to62J.61.Theprocedureprovidesthat:

• theCommissionerofHealthmustpublishproposedrulesintheStateRegister;

• theCommissionermaypublishanoticedescribingtherulesandofferingafreecopyinsteadofpublishingthetextoftherules,iftheruleswouldbesolengthyastobeundulycumbersometopublish;

• interestedpartieshave30daystocomment;and

• afterconsideringallcomments,theCommissionermayadopttherulesbypublishinganoticeofadoptionintheStateRegister.

Reason for rulemaking authority.Healthcareindustrybillingproceduresandotherbusiness(administrative)transactionsmustbeupdatedfrequentlybecauseofrapidchangesinbusinesspractices,aswellaschangesinnationaltransactionsstandardsandfederalregulations.Itisimportantthatrelatedstaterulesgoverninghealthcarebusinesstransactionsremainup-to-dateandreflecttheongoingchangesintheindustry.TheLegislaturerecognizedthatthenormalrulemakingproceduresinMinnesotaStatutes,chapter14,whichtakeanaverageof18months,wouldnotbetimelyenoughtokeepupwithanoftenmuchmorerapidpaceofchange.Incomparison,therulemakingpermittedunderSection62J.61canbecompletedwithinthreetosixmonths,significantlyreducinganypossiblelagsbetweenanyneededchangesintherulesandtheirdevelopmentandimplementation.Further,somerulesarelengthy,anditwouldnotbepracticaltopublishthemintheirentiretyintheStateRegister,especiallywhentheyareofinteresttoarelativelysmallgroupofend-users.Itismuchmoretimely,efficient,andcosteffectivetopublishanoticeoftheavailabilityofproposedoradoptedrules,alongwithinformationregardingchangesfrompreviousversions,andtoprovideafreecopyofthecompleterulestoanyonewhorequestsone.
