Hello:
I have an MD who at one time had his own professional association, but did not do much billing with it, therefore stopped billing Medicare under that name. Now they are wanting to stay with the group they are working in, but also "reactivate"/"reassign" his professional assocation name, billing once again with Medicare.
I also have a nurse practitioner wanting to do the same thing, to stay with the group they are with, but
"reactivate"/"reassign" his LLC once again with Medicare. They both did not have much billing and let the separate businesses go by the wayside.
What is the actual difference between reactivate and reassignment?
What is the actual form they both should use to re-open their separate practices once again?
They both need to submit the CMS-588?
Thank you for any help!
Denise
