CMS has made changes to its Information Technology Infrastructure to address standards for Medicare Beneficiary
Eligibility Inquiries to implement the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). CMS will provide
a HIPAA compliant 270/271 health care eligibility inquiry and response on a real-time transaction.
Clearinghouses and Providers are required to complete a 270/271 Access Form before transmitting
270/271 transactions over the MDCN. Internet access to 270/271 is not available at this time.
For more details, please visit the User Companion Guide provided in the downloads section within this page.
Note: Dial-up connectivity is not allowed for direct access to this system.
Before you begin:
Please review the entire form before beginning to ensure you have the right resources and information available to you to complete
the form in its entirely. In order to complete this form, your organization must have an AGNS connection through an approved AT&T reseller.
If you are uncertain what this means, please review the information available online at HETSHelp under the 'Sign Up Now' section before attempting
to complete the application. Access to HETSHelp website can be found under the "Related Links Inside CMS" section below.
