Realignment of States and Medicare Claims Processing Workload from the Current DMERC Regions A and B to the DME MAC Jurisdictions A and B. This Change Request Rescinds and Replaces Change Request 4002.
Due to contract award protests filed in Jurisdictions C and D, CMS will implement DME MACs only in Jurisdictions A and B on July 1, 2006. This Change Request (CR) is released to reflect those date changes, the new contractor numbers associated with the new DME MAC jurisdictions, and to reflect that Jurisdiction B will incorporate the State of Kentucky from DMERC region C.
