Allow Zoned Program Integrity Contractors (ZPICs) to Access Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) by ZPIC Zone
In some instances, there are only two organizational roles to access
MAC’s claims data and reports: Program safeguard contractor (PSC) and MAC. PSCs are transitioning to
ZPICs. A MAC region may include several ZPIC zones (home health/hospice and DME only). This
change request will allow access to a MAC’s claims data by multiple PSCs and each PSC/ZPIC to produce
reports that concern only claims for the PSC/ZPIC zone.
