Medicare Update

Hello Everyone,



The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ Region VIII Office invites you to participate in our toll-free Region VIII Medicare Chat with Your Recovery Audit Contractor (RAC). There will be two calls. The first call will feature Connolly Consulting, the RAC for Region C (Colorado). The second call will feature HealthData Insights, the RAC for Region D (Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming).



CMS and the featured RAC will give brief presentations, leaving the bulk of the time to answer your questions. Join us and enjoy the opportunity to talk to our experts.



These calls are open to all providers, partners, and stakeholders in Colorado, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming. However, we believe you will find it most beneficial to attend the call that features the RAC for your state. You do not need to register for these calls.



Please pass this invitation and the attached agendas along to your colleagues and association members. We appreciate your assistance in publicizing these calls. As always, we are looking forward to chatting with you.
