Title: Requirements for Establishing and Maintaining Medicare Billing Privileges (HCFA-6002-P) 
Abstract: This rule would establish a requirement that all providers and suppliers (other than physicians who have entered into a private contract with a beneficiary) must complete an enrollment form, submit specified information to us, and periodically update and certify the accuracy of the enrollment information in order to receive and maintain billing privileges in the Medicare program. The information must clearly identify the provider or supplier and its place of business, provide documentation that it is qualified to perform the services for which it is billing, and assure that it is not currently excluded from the Medicare program. If we determine the information submitted is incomplete, invalid, or insufficient to meet Medicare requirements, we would reject, deny, inactivate, or revoke billing privileges.
