The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is conducting a
webinar for Medicare Part A providers and entities that file cost reports for providers on
Wednesday, February 14 from 1–2:30 pm ET. This webinar will discuss new and upcoming functionality for Medicare Part A cost reports in the Medicare Cost Report E-Filing (MCReF) system including how to:
- Download provider and statistical reimbursement summary reports
- Use optional electronic cost report exhibit templates to get immediate feedback about potential issues, along with faster acceptance and tentative settlement. New exhibit templates include:
- Medicare bad debt listing
- Medicaid eligible days
- Charity care charges
- Total bad debt
Registration is required for this webinar. Providers may send questions in advance to
OFMDPAOQuestions@cms.hhs.gov with “MCReF Webinar” in the subject line. CMS intends to answer these questions during the webinar or use them to develop educational materials.
