Medicare Providers:
During the revalidation process if a provider fails to meet the revalidation deadline they will be deactivated without the ability to bill retroactively for
the services while they are deactivated. Providers should get a notice of the due date for revalidation BUT if you do not get the notice from your MAC to revalidate, you are encouraged to go ahead and submit your revalidation application if you are within 2 months of the listed due date.
The new CMS.gov Lookup Tool can help you obtain your due date. Visit: https://data.cms.gov/revalidation
As always, watch for notifications from Medicare to ensure you do not miss the deadline! Missing the deadline can cost you money this year!
