ATTENTION: All DME MAC Suppliers, Vendors, Clearinghouses, and Billing Services

Effective May 1, 2008, Jurisdiction A and Jurisdiction D DME MAC Trading Partners (submitters) were transitioned to the Common Electronic Data Interchange (CEDI) for the exchange of all electronic transactions.

The date for Jurisdiction B and Jurisdiction C DME MAC Trading Partners (suppliers) to transition to CEDI was originally scheduled to occur on June 1, 2008.  CEDI and CMS have extended the Jurisdiction B and Jurisdiction C transition through Friday, June 6, 2008.

This extension will allow the Trading Partners currently exchanging transactions with Jurisdiction B and Jurisdiction C who have not yet moved to CEDI to work with CEDI and/or their vendor to complete their transition.  The Jurisdiction B and Jurisdiction C Trading Partners (submitters) who have not completely transitioned to the CEDI may continue to send to the current Jurisdiction B and Jurisdiction C DME MAC EDI Front End systems until June 6, 2008.

PLEASE NOTE:  Trading Partners (submitters) who have fully transitioned to CEDI are not affected by this extension.
