WASHINGTON – The National Suppliers Clearinghouse will no longer process new DMEPOS provider enrollment applications starting Oct. 29, CMS officials announced during a Sept. 21 Open Door Forum. After that date, Palmetto will process applications for the west half of the country and Novitas for the east half. At this time, suppliers don’t need to take any action, but they should continue working with the NSC, officials said. Any in-process applications will automatically be transferred to the new contractors. CMS will release more information next week, including a map that shows how the two regions are split. The agency is also working on getting contractor websites up and running.
