Administrative Simplification Compliance Act (ASCA)
Administrative Simplification Compliance Act (ASCA) requires that providers submit claims to Medicare electronically to be considered for payment, with a limited number of exceptions. If a provider does meet one of the exceptions, the provider is waived for a period of two years. At the end of that two-year period, another review process is initiated. The qualifying information for a provider to be waived the first time will need to be reviewed and the waiver reissued if the provider still meets one of the exceptions.
If you have already been waived for ASCA and you receive an ASCA review letter, the qualifying information will need to either be mailed to the address in the letter or faxed to 618-998-5230.
