      HL7 Version 2.x V2.10 - 6 Financial Management



      Sections 6.5.7.25, 26, and 27 for IN2 field definitions specifically mention message requirements imposed by "ENVOY Corporation processing". It isn't appropriate to have this in the baseline standard so please remove that part. If Envoy has particular requirements then they need to publish their own Implementation Guide.

      Furthermore, Envoy Corporation is no longer even the correct name. My understanding is that they were acquired years ago by WebMD and then later spun off to Change Healthcare Holdings.
