Single Member LLC Tax ID

<< < (3/6) > >>

PMRNC:
No, no employee's, but I've been setup this way for 7 years.

I have to agree with Linda here....I, too, am a single member LLC and used my EIN.

Pay_My_Claims:
it think its new, because when I applied online, I got the same message as a disregarded entity. a single provider LLC

PMRNC:
Ok, I happened to ask my accountant yesterday and he said it's correct that the LLC laws vary from state to state.. There are states that have a requirement on how many can form an LLC. The use of the EIN is your choice as long as it's followed through.. I could have used my SS # being that I had no employees but I had already had an EIN so that is what I used and it's perfectly acceptable and legal. Now in the states where you can't have single member (sole proprietorship) LLC's then I imagine it's different. Oh and also he says it goes by the state in which you create the LLC.. You don't have to setup in the state you are in. For example many companies setup up different corp statuses in Delaware  ;D ;D

Ok, I think this might be part of the same problem my provider is having with Medicare, and I also don't know what to do about her other carriers.
 Medicare sent something to a 15 year old address (which I thought was changed since current address had been filled out on NPI, NPPES websites), it came back and they sent out a letter to her saying she had to revalidate. Letter dated 4/1/10, she actually got 5/15/10, saying she had 60 days to do what the letter said. So, we filled out the 855I with address correction (after I went through app section by section with a prov enrollment rep, and then another one to clarify more a few days later - of course they said different things - first rep said for the address situation mark "change" by practice location; second rep, said we needed to delete the 15 yr old address, then do a separate page to "add" the so-called new address).

Then we get a letter 8/2/10 saying based on info received, she NOW MUST HAVE an organizational NPI. Apparently, all this time her Medicare PTAN and NPI were individual and linked to her SS#, not her Tax ID, even though that's what I've always put on claims. She is a Professional Corp., but it's just her. That was already in place when I took over billing, so I had no reason to question anything. Ok, so we do everything in the letter and 8/25 we get another letter that they have de-activated her old # back to 3/5/10, even though the original letter was dated 4/1 and said she had 60 days to revalidate, and she was issued a new group PTAN and we had gotten a new grp NPI.OK, I THINK I MIGHT HAVE TO CONTINUE ON ANOTHER MESSAGE SINCE THIS SEEMS TOO LONG.
