Good Morning All
I just received my first patient with his new Medicare ID Number. Any suggestion as to where it goes in AC demographics? I know I can replace the old Medicare ID but is the new number effective immediately?

The new Medicare ID is in effect from April 1, 2018. The transition period is between 4/1/018 through 12/31/2019. During this transition period CMS will accept claims using both new Medicare ID and old Medicare ID. After 12/31/2019 CMS will no longer accept claims with old IDs. You will populate the new ID in Amazing Chart Demography in the same field as old. Here is all you need to know on the CMS Medicare new ID project/timelines. https://www.cms.gov/Outreach-and-Ed...ntoNewMedicareNumbersandCards-909365.pdfThanks aramiz Houston
