Beginning on January 1, 2011, certain employers and insurers were required to report settlements, judgments or awards, where medical expenses are paid to a Medicare-eligible claimant. The requirement applies to settlements, judgments, or awards established on or after October 1, 2010. In order to comply with these reporting requirements, covered entities will need to register with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) as soon as they become aware of a reportable claim.
