New Hospice Notice of Election Quick Resource Tool
CGS worked in collaboration with the home health and hospice Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) Palmetto GBA, and National Government Services (NGS) to develop the "Notice of Election (NOE) Timely Filing and Exceptional Circumstance Guidelines" quick resource tool. This tool offers guidelines to assist providers when required billing elements for the notice of election cause it to be untimely. Although several scenarios are provided, it is impossible to include all possible scenarios. Please share this with your billing staff.
