Medicare Beneficiary Identifier (MBI) and Name to Number Converter Tool
Use this tool to convert the patient's MBI and name to the corresponding numbers on your telephone keypad. This information will be extremely helpful when using the IVR.

Your Medicare Remittance Notice (MRN)
The MRN contains valuable information on how your claim processed and what determined the payment amount you received.

CGS Wizard
Enter the 14-digit Claim Control Number (CCN) to easily view claim denial information and helpful education on specific claims. A user ID and password are not required since the tool does not provide any protected health information (PHI).

Claim Denial Resolution Tool
This tool is an excellent resource to understand why your claim may have denied and what you need to do to correct it for payment consideration.

Local Coverage Determination (LCD)
Review the LCD that applies to your claim.
