How to Avoid a Denial: Do the Products and Services Offered Match Accreditation Information?

Published in Government Relations on January 11, 2022

When is it a good time to review the product and services your business offers? Now is the perfect time. CMS released an update stating that beginning January 3, 2022, DMEPOS suppliers will receive informational messaging on the remit resulting in a claim denial when the supplier is not appropriately accredited. In addition to reviewing accreditation information, you should also review the products and services offered on the 855S application or within PECOS.

The MLN article discussing this most recent update is included here and is a good article for review.
