What are the penalties for falsifying information when using PECOS?
During the PECOS submission process, the “Penalties for Falsifying Information” page, which has the same text as the paper enrollment application, informs the physician or non-physician practitioner of the consequences of providing false information on the enrollment application. He/she must acknowledge the “Penalties for Falsifying Information” page by clicking the “Next Page” button before continuing with the Internet submission process.
