Get Ready For Medicare Revalidation Request
Published on Tue Jul 12, 2011
If you haven't had to revalidate your Medicare enrollment yet, you will soon. "Between now and March 23, 2013, MACs will send out notices on a regular basis to begin the revalidation process for each provider and supplier," HHH MAC Palmetto GBA notes in an Aug. 8 post to its website. The post reviews revalidation information contained in MLN Matters Article No. SE1126. "Please note that 42 CFR 424.515(d) provides CMS the authority to conduct these off-cycle revalidations," the post says.
