Ask the Contractor Teleconferences are similar to
the Open Door Forums offered by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid
Services (CMS). They serve to identify problems, respond to questions in a
timely manner, provide methods of sharing information, and are an
excellent tool to listen to providers - our customers. This is your
opportunity to speak directly to your Medicare contractor on various
topics.
Ask the Contractor Teleconferences (ACT) are held about once per quarter.
Conference call details will be available at least two weeks prior to the date of the
call.
Take advantage of this opportunity to speak with Provider Outreach without even
leaving your office.
All calls are toll-free. No registration is needed; however the number of lines is
limited.
