Common use of Specific Communications Clause in Contracts

Specific Communications. BCBSNE, the Plan Sponsor, and THE PLAN recognize and agree that communications between the parties that are required to meet the Standards for Electronic Transactions will meet the Standards set by that Regulation. a. Communications between the Plan Sponsor and BCBSNE, or between the Plan Sponsor and THE PLAN, do not need to comply with the Standards for Electronic Transactions. Accordingly, unless agreed otherwise by the Parties in writing, all communications for purposes of "enrollment" and "Health Plan Premium Payment Data" as those terms are defined in 45 CFR Part 162, shall be conducted between the Plan Sponsor and either BCBSNE or THE PLAN. For all such communications (and any other communications between Plan Sponsor and BCBSNE), Plan Sponsor shall use such forms, tape formats or electronic formats as BCBSNE may approve. Plan Sponsor will include all information reasonably required by BCBSNE to affect such data exchanges or notifications. b. All communications between BCBSNE and THE PLAN that are required to meet the Standards for Electronic Transactions shall do so. For any other communications between BCBSNE and THE PLAN, THE PLAN shall use such forms, tape formats or electronic formats as BCBSNE may approve. THE PLAN will include all information reasonably required by BCBSNE to affect such data exchanges or notifications.
