Held on March 1, the 92nd Meeting of the Committee for the Standardization of Information on Supplementary Health - COPISS, dealt with various matters of interest to the College and other entities present.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the main topics addressed at the meeting was \u201cSecurity and Privacy Requirements \u2013 Beneficiary Authentication Mechanisms\u201d. Due to the delay in standardizing beneficiary identification methods, health operators are implementing and requiring some providers to use tokens, biometrics and\/or facial recognition.<\/span><\/p>\n

The CBR highlighted that there should be no cost for providers, regardless of the solutions adopted, and that such solutions cannot increase the service time for beneficiaries. It was reported that there are already operators requiring two forms of patient identification (Token and Biometrics, for example) and that this has an impact on care.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Brazilian Society of Health Informatics (SBIS) was responsible, at the time, for bringing a standardization proposal within 60 days for forwarding the COPISS. One month before this stipulated deadline, SBIS will meet with health operators to analyze the experiences already implemented by some operators.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another topic discussed at the meeting was \u201cDenunciation of health operators that do not adopt the TISS standard \u2013 Exchange of Information in Supplementary Health\u201d. Within this topic, CBR reported that large operators have not provided providers with the option of "Authorizer and Eligibility" via webservice and "Demonstrativos de Payamentos e Glosas" in XML format, items of the TISS standard that enable automation and cost reduction and glosses for clinics.<\/span><\/p>\n

It was suggested to the National Supplementary Health Agency (ANS) to initiate a complaint process, hiding the names of providers to preserve them from possible retaliation. ANS agreed and explained that, based on the complaint, the operator in question will receive an audit to prove that a group of providers selected by the Agency use such functionalities.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is under discussion to redo a consultation held in 2014 on the adoption of the TISS and forward the responses to the ANS, in the form of a complaint.<\/span><\/p>\n

With regard to the Improvement of the TISS Standard, the 2018 agenda was presented, consisting of the topics below:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
