Jurisdiction B News: Appeal Process Update

 
 
 
 
Appeal Process Update

When submitting an appeal, providers are no longer required to send copies of the initial documentation submitted in response to an Additional Documentation Request (ADR) for medical review. These initial records become part of the provider's appeal file, which will be available for subsequent levels of appeal. National Government Services recommends that providers submit any documentation that may have been omitted in response to the ADR, additional documentation to support the service billed, or any supporting statements, when submitting an appeal.

Please remember to submit the appropriate appeal form which may be located on our Web site by following the link:
