What’s happening: The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has provided additional updates to the Medicare Advantage Provider Complaint Submission form as it continues to refine the process,.
What else to know: As previously reported, CMS has developed a process that allows providers to submit questions and complaints related to Medicare Advantage (MA) plan appeals or claims payment issues.
The current version (7) was issued in early December. The form serves as a mechanism for Medicare providers seeking CMS assistance to resolve specific MA claims issues; CMS will enter complete complaint forms into the complaints tracking module and direct MA to investigate the case.
