Informational Message on the 835
The ViPs Medicare Shared System (VMS) will now be required to notify a supplier when a claim is submitted for an ordering provider and the required information is not found on the Provider Enrollment Chain Ownership System (PECOS) file by including a warning message on the remittance advice. Once the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has determined when edits should be turned on to not pay claims, the warning messages will no longer be generated.
