Doesn t the law also require Medicare claims to be submitted electronically after October, 2003?
A24: ASCA prohibits HHS from paying Medicare claims that are not submitted electronically after October 16, 2003, unless the Secretary grants a waiver from this requirement. It further provides that the Secretary must grant such a waiver if there is no method available for the submission of claims in electronic form or if the entity submitting the claim is a small provider of services or supplies. Beneficiaries will also be able to continue to file paper claims if they need to file a claim on their own behalf. The Secretary may grant such a waiver in other circumstances. We will publish proposed regulations to implement this new authority.
