“Medicare Enrollment Guidelines for Ordering/Referring Providers” Fact Sheet Revised

The publication titled “Medicare Enrollment Guidelines for Ordering/Referring Providers,” which is available from the Medicare Learning Network at http://www.CMS.gov/MLNProducts/downloads/MedEnroll_OrderReferProv_FactSheet_ICN906223.pdf, was revised to remove “Doctors of Chiropractic Medicine” from the list of providers who are eligible to order/refer, as indicated in technical direction that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued on Friday, August 12. CMS will reissue the related policies as soon as possible. This fact sheet is designed to provide education on the Medicare enrollment requirements for eligible ordering/referring providers. It includes information on the three basic requirements for ordering and referring and who may order and refer for Medicare Part A home health agency, Part B, and durable medical equipment prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies (DMEPOS) beneficiary services.
