Code Set effectivity compliance testing

[George Kaye]

If a payer performs compliance testing with a clearinghouse for code set effectivity for a professional claim (for example), has anyone thought through the process of what that testing should consist of, so that the payer can assume that those code sets will continue to be compliant from that clearinghouse on an ongoing basis regardless of: the type of professional claim (office visit, ambulance, physical therapy etc.), or  when the code is impacted by new code set releases by the DSMO's?
