The Division of Risk Management, as a required reporting entity, must identify any Medicare beneficiaries that have existing claims with the Division of Risk Management and collect certain data that will be reported to the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). The data collected under federal law will be used by CMS in processing claims billed to Medicare for reimbursement of items and services furnished to Medicare beneficiaries and for Medicare as a Secondary Payer recovery effort, as appropriate. The simplest and most effective means to collect this data is to promulgate a form that will be sent to all applicable claimants.
