Request: New collection; Title of
Information Collection: Provider
Enrollment Chain and Ownership
System (PECOS) Web Security Consent
Form; Form No.: CMS–10220 (OMB#
0938–NEW); Use: In establishing a Web
based application process, we allow
providers and suppliers the ability to
enroll in the Medicare program via the
Internet. For these applicants, no
security consent form is needed to
enroll or make a change in their
Medicare enrollment information. These
applicants receive complete access to
their own enrollments through the Web
based version of the Provider
Enrollment, Chain and Ownership
System (PECOS).
AGENCY:

Frm 00058
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
In order to allow a provider or
supplier to delegate the Medicare
credentialing process to another
individual or organization, it is
necessary to establish a Security
Consent Form for those providers and
suppliers who choose to have another
individual or organization access their
enrollment information and complete
enrollments on their behalf. These users
could consist of administrative staff,
independent contractors, or
credentialing departments and are
represented as a User group. User
groups and its members must request
access to enrollment data through a
Security Consent Form. The security
consent form replicates business service
agreements between Medicare
applicants and organizations providing
enrollment services.
We are proposing four different
versions of the Security Consent Form.
The form, once signed, mailed and
approved, grants a user group or its
member access to specific Medicare
enrollment records. The system
administrator, within the user group,
assigns to each member of the group, a
security role that will define their levels
of functionality within PECOS web for
an individual or organization.
