- Description
- The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) awarded a five year contract (two year base period with three option years) to a Payment File Development Contractor (PFDC) to assist CMS in making Medicare Fee-for-Service (FFS) incentive payments to eligible Medicare professionals (EPs) and hospitals under the HITECH Act. As required under the HITECH Act, CMS must begin making incentive payments in FY2011 to EPs and hospitals for a period of five years. CMS intends to use a PFDC to help make HITECH payments to Medicare EPs and hospitals and to ensure proper funds control and accounting related to these payments. The purpose of this contract action is to exercise Option Year #3. The significant changes for Option Year #3 include an increased volume of work and enhancements to the requirements associated with tasks 14, 15, 16, and 17 that include processing additional meaningful use audit and cost report audit demand letters, collections, and debt referrals to Treasury for both doctors and hospitals; additional reporting on collections/receivables; improving/automating referrals to Treasury to reduce the manual level of effort associated with entering debt into DCS; processing additional Remedy tickets; managing/monitoring extended repayment plans; and making manual payments and manual adjustments to payments. This is the last Option that can be exercised. The estimated amount of the Option Year #3 contract action is $2,750,000.00.
