Implementation of New Compliance Standards for Independent Diagnostic Testing Facilities (IDTFs)
This change request incorporates into Pub. 100-08, chapter 10 (hereinafter referred to as chapter 10), new supplier standards that IDTFs must meet in order to bill the Medicare program. It also deletes section 4.19.8, as well as other minor provisions - from the IDTF instructions in chapter 10. Such instructions were removed because they involve general IDTF policy as well as IDTF billing procedures, neither of which come under the purview of provider enrollment.
