Overview

NEWS ALERT: Your local Medicare contractor (carrier, fiscal intermediary, or Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC)) is a valuable source of news and information regarding Medicare business in your specific practice location. Through their electronic mailing lists, your local contractor can quickly provide you with information pertinent to your geographic area, such as local coverage determinations, local provider education activities, etc. If you have not done so already, you should go to your local contractor website and sign up for their listserv or e-mailing list. Many contractors have links on their home page to take you to their registration page to subscribe to their listserv. If you do not see a link on the homepage, just search their site for "listserv" or "e-mail list" to find the registration page. If you do not know the Web address of your contractor's homepage, it is available on the CMS website.

The Provider Communications Group (PCG) at the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is responsible for developing and implementing national provider education campaigns on various Medicare fee-for-service related subjects. While we have various mechanisms to ensure that educational materials reach appropriate audiences (e.g., the Internet, national conference exhibits), we have found that one of the best ways to reach these audiences is through working collaboratively with national health care professional associations.
