Due November 30: DDE & PPTN Recertification
For security purposes, CGS must certify each Direct Data Entry (DDE) and Professional Provider Telecommunications Network (PPTN) user's system access annually.
The Annual DDE & PPTN Recertification process began on July 1.
Based on the completion rates below, we're offering a second extension to help users avoid deactivation. Please fax the Annual DDE PPTN Recertification Form
before November 30.
| Provider Type | Completion Rate |
|---|---|
| Home Health & Hospice | 64% |
| Part A | 61% |
| Part B | 40% |
Note: Once the termination process begins, a new application (DDE & PPTN Application/Reactivation) is required to restore access, and the normal 20 business days for processing applies.
