Timely Filing Requirements shortened for Medicare...
Under the new law, claims for services furnished on or after January 1, 2010 must be filed within one calendar year after the date of service.
In addition, claims for services furnished before October 1, 2009 to January 1, 2010, must be filed no later than December 31, 2010.
The law does permit the Secretary of HHS to make certain exceptions to the one-year filing deadline, but at this time no exceptions have been established. However, proposals for exceptions will be specified in future proposed rulemaking.
