Federal law requires that CMS minimize
the security risk to federal information systems. CMS is requiring
that trading partners who wish to conduct the Electronic Data
Interchange (EDI) transactions provide certain assurance as a
condition of receiving access to the Medicare system for the
purpose of conducting EDI exchanges. Health care providers,
clearinghouses, and health plans that wish access to the Medicare
system are required to complete this form. The information will be
used to assure that those entities that access the Medicare system
are aware of applicable provisions and penalties.
Burden Decrease is due to an
update in actual numbers.
