Event Overview
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) mandate that only practitioners use their login credentials. However, many organizations still use a practitioner’s login for accessing NPPES and PECOS for enrollments, updates, or reassignments, risking penalties for falsification and other civil and criminal charges.
To ensure compliance, the proper setup in the CMS Identity & Access (I&A) System is essential. This includes requesting surrogacy access to manage enrollments on behalf of practitioners providing billable services to your organization. If you haven’t established practitioner surrogacy connections yet, now is the time.
Join our webinar to learn about the CMS I&A roles, how to set up your organization correctly, and how to request and receive approval for surrogacy to manage enrollments and NPIs efficiently.
This is a pre-conference webinar for Eide Bailly’s Medicare Provider Enrollment Compliance Conference (MPECC), scheduled for March 10-13, 2025, in Nashville, TN. While attending MPECC after this webinar is encouraged, it is not required.
