| Reminders: Medicare Re-Enrollment and Payment by EFT |
|
Reminder #1: All providers and suppliers enrolled with Medicare prior to March 25, 2011 must revalidate their enrollment information after receiving notification from your MAC. When you receive this notification, you will update your enrollment through the Internet-based PECOS (Provider Enrollment, Chain, and Ownership System).
Reminder #2: If you receive payment from Medicare for services provided, you must agree to receive Medicare payments through electronic funds transfer (EFT). If you do not currently receive EFT payments, you must submit the CMS 588 EFT form with the Provider Enrollment Revalidation application.
For more information on both of these items, please review the Medicare Learning Network's Special Edition Article #SE1126S: Further Details on the Revalidation of Provider Enrollment Information.
