MMSEA UPDATE – March 4, 2010

In recent weeks CMS has provided numerous updates regarding Medicare, Medicaid, & SCHIP Extension Act of 2007. In addition to the implementation date being pushed back to January 1, 2011 CMS has attempted to provide clarity in their February 24, 2010 Alerts. These alerts provide information on how NGHP entities can remain in compliance with the requirements and provide further clarification regarding who should report.

Despite CMS’ attempt to provide clarity to a very complex process, it is an industry consensus that the information that has been provided may have only confused matters more.

The most recent information provided by CMS was posted on 03/04/2010:
