The Newly Enhanced CERT Claim Identifier Tool is Now Available

September 1, 2011

CMS uses the Comprehensive Error Rate Testing (CERT) program to measure and improve the quality and accuracy of Medicare claims submission, processing and payment. Under this program, numerous randomly selected claims are reviewed each year. The CERT Claim Identifier Tool has been designed to help Medicare providers locate information regarding the final outcome of their CERT review. Simply enter your Claim Identifier (CID) number and results of the CERT review will materialize. The CID number is assigned by CERT once a claim has been selected and is unique to the claim sampled.
