Frequently Asked Questions (Providers)
To Ask a New Question - Please check the manuals first. The Medicare contractor
who pays your claims is the best source of answers to specific
Medicare questions. Contractors are carriers, intermediaries or
Program Safeguard Contractors who interpret Medicare laws, develop
local policies and educate providers. Contractor websites
list local policies. If you have difficulty communicating with the
contractor you may contact the Medicare
Regional Office for
assistance.
