Maintain Your Medicare Enrollment: Submit Your Provider Enrollment Revalidation by May 1

CMS; Medicare; Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF)
 

​As a reminder, ​​skilled nursing facility (SNF) providers enrolled in Medicare or Medicare/Medicaid must submit a mandatory off-cycle provider enrollment revalidation by May 1, 2025. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) issued this mandatory process last September.


It is important for SNF providers to ensure completion of the revalidation process by May 1 or risk having their Medicare enrollment suspended or revoked. As of mid-March, less than 20 percent of SNF providers have submitted revalidation applications.

AHCA will continue to advocate for relief or extensions for filing this paperwork, but SNF providers should assume the May 1 deadline and all disclosure requirements will remain and submit their paperwork immediately.

AHCA Resources
AHCA recently hosted two “Office Hours” webinars on the revalidation process, which highlighted key aspects of the policy and new reporting requirements.

Recordings from the March 28 and April 4  webinars are available to watch on-demand.

AHCA also offers a variety of SNF provider enrollment resources available on the Reimbursement website, including contact information, past webinars, feedback from CMS, and more. Please contact 855Revalidation@ahca.org with any questions.
