Reimbursement word cloud concept

HHS is working to make payments in the second tranche to providers who bill Medicaid but do not bill Medicare.  The ultimate goal of these funds is to cover lost revenue and some expenditures.  But at this point HHS is not looking for any data on spending or increased expenditures.  They want only the Tax ID Numbers (TINs) of providers who bill Medicaid, but not Medicare. If you are a Medicaid provider who does not bill Medicare, please send your TIN in this excel spreadsheet to atripp@leadingage.org asap. While you are past the original Tuesday deadline, we hope that this will still expedite your payment. NOTE: If your organization has multiple service lines (i.e nursing facility, home health, HCBS) that receive Medicaid payment through separate TINs, they need to reported on separate lines.
