Don't "Slip and Fall" Off of Medicare Rolls

With all the paper that flows through your office, it would be easy to overlook a letter from CMS asking you to revalidate your Medicare enrollment.  Failure to do so could result in you falling off the program.

Remember how difficult it was to get enrolled the first time?

Just to be sure, you may wish to check the lists of providers sent notices to revalidate their Medicare enrollment by scrolling to the "Downloads" section at http://www.CMS.gov/MedicareProviderSupEnroll/11_Revalidations.asp on the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) website.

That site currently contains links to lists of providers sent notices from September 2011, through January 2012. Information on revalidation letters sent in February will be posted in late March.

For ease of reference, the lists are in order by National Provider Identifier and the date the notice was sent.
