Always use the Log Out button (in the top-right corner) before closing your browser.	Open
02.28.19	Some Designated Approvers (DAs) are receiving an error when attempting to approve initial End User registration.	After a new End User has submitted their myCGS registration, they must be approved by a DA. In some cases, DAs are receiving an error message when attempting to approve the request.	This issue is not affecting all users. If there are multiple DAs in your company, have another DA attempt to approve the End User.	Open
02.25.19	On the ADR Detail screen, the Review Results Code(s) link occasionally opens to a blank page.	When there are no results found for Review Result Codes on an ADR, the screen will display as blank rather than state that no codes are found. This only occurs when there are no review result codes.	Ignore the blank page.	Open

If a DA attempts to deny recertification of an End User, myCGS returns a message stating "There was a problem updating [user name]: NOTFOUND."	Rather than denying the recertification, let the recertification deadline pass. You can also go to the User Management screen and remove the End User's myCGS access.	Open
12.18.18	On the Diabetic Supplies/Shoes Billing History screen, myCGS states that only claims within 6 months prior to and after the date entered are displayed; however, myCGS returns different date spans of claims based on the type of diabetic history selected.	myCGS is intentionally programmed to provide different date spans before and after the date of service (DOS) entered for different types of diabetic supplies/shoes (based on Medicare payment rules). The message of "6 months" is incorrect for some types, but myCGS is returning the claims over the correct date spans.	Ignore the "6 months" message. myCGS provides the following date span values for diabetic supplies/shoes: Testing Supplies A4253 & A4259: 90 days prior to and after the DOS entered. Testing Supplies Other: 6 months prior to and after the DOS entered. Shoes A5500 & A5501: Full calendar year entered. Shoes Other: Full calendar year entered.	Open
