Compliance Standards for Consignment Closets and Stock and Bill Arrangements
September 10, 2009
Providers now have some time to react to the changes to Stock and Bill DME - CMS just issued Transmittal 300, dated September 1, 2009, that rescinds and replaces Transmittal 297, dated August 7, 2009. The change is the implementation date from September 8, 2009 to March 1, 2010. All other information remains the same.
We will keep you posted as more information becomes available.
In regards to the CMS Consignment Closet Compliance Update with new effective date Mar 1, this question comes from a DMEPOS provider. Does a hospital fall under the category of “practice location or a physician’s or a non-physician practitioner”? Any insight would be appreciated on this topic.
I believe I have found my answer under other recent comments. Thank you!
