I believe  VistA can still generate a 1500 type bill, although I have never 
tried any of that.  The output in the document I have is for sending to 
Austin to then forward to WebMD, but it has all of the content that all of 
the insurance companies might want beyond the usual stuff in a HIPAA 
compliant transmission.

generator in RPMS is much more than a single routine.  There is also the
newer software from Infomatix.
