HETS UI

The Medicare HETS User Interface (UI) Eligibility system is intended to allow release of eligibility data to Medicare Fee-for-Service (FFS) providers for the purpose of preparing an accurate Medicare claim, determining beneficiary liability or determining eligibility for specific services.

The system provides access to Medicare beneficiary eligibility data in a real-time environment. In this environment, the user is able to submit eligibility request by supplying beneficiary identifiable information and receiving a real-time response online.

This is a pilot with registration restricted to those organizations that are pre-approved.

The Downloads section, below, lists IACS Quick Reference Guides applicable for the HETS Application.  These guides provide users with information and instructions to register in IACS and request access to CMS application(s) available to your user community.  The guides are provided in standard and accessible versions according to the 1998 Amendment to Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act.  The displayed titles show "Standard" and "508 Accessible", respectively.  Please contact your Help Desk if you have any questions on the IACS' guides or system functionality.
