CMS says new system will avoid payments using dead doctors' names
Comments
"CMS says new system will avoid payments using dead doctors' names."
At last. The new NPI system will finally avoid payments to all doctors. Darrell Pruitt DDS
CMS is continually embarrassed and will be until they are willing to make dramatic changes within their agency. In 1997 CMS was informed of how providers had been ripping off the Medicare system by filing fraudulent cost reports. CMS was reluctant to aggressively pursue the providers and recover the billions swindled from their program. Until CMS wakes up they will continue to be vulnerable to fraud.
