Claim Page 01 – Entering a Notice of Termination/Revocation - NOTR (8XB)

A Notice of Termination/Revocation (NOTR), also known by its type of bill - 8XB must be submitted to, and accepted by, CGS within 5 calendar days after the hospice discharge or revocation, unless a final hospice claim has already been submitted. To be accepted by CGS, the NOTR must be free of billing or keying errors that would cause the NOTR to be returned or rejected. Refer to MM8877External PDF for additional information.

An NOTR may be submitted to CGS via direct data entry (DDE), meaning it can be keyed directly into the Fiscal Intermediary Standard System (FISS). To submit a NOTR, providers may use FISS Option 49 (NOE/NOA), and complete information on Claim Page 01 and Claim Page 03. You may also submit NOEs via Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). Refer to CMS 837I NOE Companion GuideExternal PDF for the required elements.

The screenprints and tables below indicate what fields are required, and what data is required in each field. If information is not entered correctly, your NOTR will be returned to you for correction (RTP).
