Home Health & Hospice Week

You have until Feb. 27 to respond to HHH Medicare Administrative Contractor CGS's request for Medicare revalidation. Back in December, CGS made some mix-ups with its revalidation letters (see Eli's HCW, Vol. XXI, No. 2, p. 15). But don't let that confusion keep you from responding to a revalidation request. "Failure to submit the enrollment forms as requested may result in the deactivation of your Medicare billing privileges," the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services stresses in a MLN Matters article about the revalidation process. Resources: More information is on CGS's website at www.cgsmedicare.com/hhh/enrollment/Revalidation.html. Scroll down for a link to CGS's FAQs on the revalidation process.
