Claim Page 01 – Correcting a Notice of Termination/Revocation – NOTR (8XB)

For notices of termination/revocation (NOTRs) with the "From" date on or after January 1, 2018, hospice providers may submit an NOTR to correct an NOTR date. An NOTR may be submitted to CGS via direct data entry (DDE), meaning it can be keyed directly into the Fiscal Intermediary Standard System (FISS). To submit a NOTR, providers may use FISS Option 49 (NOE/NOA), and complete information on Claim Page 01 and Claim Page 03. You may also submit NOEs via Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). Refer to CMS 837I NOE Companion GuideExternal PDF for the required elements. Additional information is also available in the following Medicare Learning Network (MLN®) Matters articles.
