Changing? We Need to Know! - Revised 2-6-08

If any electronic billing information changes in your office, we need to know!

If any of the items below change, please notify the EDI Services Department in writing. We will accept notification via fax or postal mail. A written notification by your office gives the EDI Services Department authorization to make changes to your EDI records at Medicare:
  • Your EDI Services contact person has changed
  • You changed your address
  • You changed your telephone number
  • You changed your Vendor, Billing Service or Clearinghouse
  • As an individual provider, you are now associated with a new electronic billing group
  • You have left a group practice, and now have a solo practice
  • You have changed your Medicare Provider Transaction Access Number (PTAN)
Correct electronic billing records at Medicare ensure that we can notify you of any problems or changes that could affect you, and allow us to provide better service to you.

NOTE:
  • If you are a provider, and you are utilizing a vendor, billing service, or clearing house, and you change to a DIFFERENT vendor, billing service, or clearing house, your office must notify us, not the vendor, billing service, or clearing house. Please complete a new Letter of Intent Adobe PDF Document - Click Here for Download Instructions form and fax or mail it to us.


  • If you are a billing service or clearinghouse, please notify us of any contact name and phone number changes so that we can contact the appropriate person on questions or problems regarding EDI submissions for your clients. Changes should be indicated in writing on your letterhead and may be faxed or mailed to us. Any paperwork submitted on behalf of new clients must also contain accurate contact information, indicating who you want us to call to discuss questions or problems with electronic billing.
