NOE Reminder: Hospice Providers May Resubmit NOEs Originally Submitted with Errors
When a Notice of Election (NOE) is submitted timely (within 5 days after a hospice admission), but the hospice provider determines the NOE contained a billing error, a new corrected NOE can be submitted immediately. Hospices do not need to wait for the initial incorrect NOE to be Returned to the Provider (RTPd). Submitting a new, corrected NOE within the 5 days will reduce the risk of having an untimely NOE.
Please note that CGS has updated the frequently asked question #6, under the “Timely Filing of Notices of Election (NOE)” heading on the “Change Request 8877 Frequently Asked Questions” web page with this information.
