User Change Request (UCR) - Fiscal Intermediary Shared System (FISS) - Implement New Search Functionality for Reason Codes, Expert Claims Processing System (ECPS) and Medical Policy Parameters (MPP)

This Change Request (CR) will implement changes requested in a User Change Request. FISS, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Service (CMS) and the Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) participated in an Analysis and Design CR to clarify the MAC needs and ensure FISS had sufficient information to develop a base design. Upon implementation, FISS will develop new functionality that allows the MACs to efficiently search within reason codes, ECPS events and MPPs for specific values.
