DMEPOS Accreditation Virtual Survey
CMS has resumed all accreditation and reaccreditation activities for DMEPOS Providers. For new and renewing DMEPOS customers, The Compliance Team is using Real-time Remote™, The Compliance Team’s virtual accreditation survey solution. Click on one of the options below to find out how to move forward with your accreditation:
For those Compliance Team customers who recently received Medicare billing privileges WITHOUT completing accreditation.
If you received Medicare billing privileges during Covid-19, without obtaining supplier accreditation, you will be receiving a letter from the National Supplier Clearinghouse (NSC) stating the following:
- Require the DMEPOS AO to conduct an in-person survey, virtual survey, or a combination of both depending on the state’s reopening plan within 90 days of you receiving the NSC letter.
- The Compliance Team continues to evaluate the COVID-19 travel advisories within each state for the safety of you, your employees, related families as well as all of ours.
- Additionally, The Compliance Team has successfully been doing initial virtual surveys (Real-Time Remote) on the Medicare Part-A side for over four months now.
- The Compliance Team is NOW currently scheduling ALL initial/new Real-Time Remote Surveys to those DMEPOS providers that have notified us they are prepared and ready.
