Give Your Opinion On CMS Contractors
Published on Fri Jan 11, 2013
What do you think about the various audit contractors? The Government Accountability Office wants to know. The GAO is requesting provider feedback on post-payment claims reviews conducted by Medicare Administrative Contracts, Recovery Auditors, Zone Program Integrity Contractors, and Comprehensive Error Rate Testing Contractors.
The GAO is working on a report about the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ oversight of these four contractors. NAHC is also soliciting this feedback for the GAO, and you can send your comments to Mary St. Pierre at mts@nahc.org
