CMS issues new forms for Medicare provider enrollment.
In its continual efforts to manage Medicare provider enrollment, CMS has revised its provider application forms. Along with the revised forms is a new requirement for a three-year cycle revalidation process that could present a considerable challenge to large providers. Also of note are longer processing periods for initial enrollment, suspension of payments if current address information is not maintained, and deactivation of a provider's number if 12 months pass without claim activity. Improvements that providers may appreciate include electronic access to forms and a decrease in the amount of information required to enroll.
