What changed
On September 20, 2019, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) awarded Wisconsin Physicians Service Government Health Administrators (WPS GHA) a new contract for the administration of Medicare Part A and Part B Fee-for-Service (FFS) claims in the states of Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, and Nebraska. As WPS GHA is the incumbent contractor for this A/B MAC jurisdiction, CMS anticipates that implementation of the new contract will go smoothly, with few, if any, service issues for Medicare beneficiaries and providers.
