Failure to Update Your Medicare Enrollment Record may Lead to Deactivation of Medicare Billing Privileges

All providers/suppliers are required per Federal Regulation 42 CFR §424.520 to report changes to their practice location and changes of ownership within 30 days and report all other changes within 90 days to their Medicare contractor. Failure to update information can result in deactivation or revocation of a provider's billing privileges.

Information is updated through submission of the applicable CMS Provider Enrollment application(s). If the application is missing required items or data elements or contains inaccurate information, the provider enrollment department of CIGNA Government Services will send the provider/supplier a letter. The letter will include a listing of additional items, supporting documentation, or missing data elements required to process the change.

In compliance with Federal Regulations found at 42 CFR §424.525, providers/suppliers are required to respond to the contractor by submitting all requested information within 30 calendar days from the date of the contractor's request. Failure to comply with the contractor's request can result in the deactivation of the provider's/supplier's Medicare billing privileges.

Applications that are received complete and accurate are processed timely. However, processing is delayed for incomplete or inaccurate applications.
