Top Reasons for Rejected CEDI Enrollment Forms

Below describes the top reasons CEDI enrollment forms are rejected and guidance on preventing and/or resolving these rejections.

  • Signee is not authorized to sign on behalf of the supplier

The authorized or delegated official’s name entered in the DME Authorized Supplier Signature field will be verified against PECOS and must match the authorized or delegated official’s name. Access PECOS at https://pecos.cms.hhs.gov/pecos/login.do External Link ​​​​​​to verify how the authorized or delegated official’s name is listed.

Important: The full name is required. Please do not use initials or nicknames, as the Enrollment request will be rejected.

CEDI Enrollment will only accept and process requests signed by the authorized and/or delegated official of the facility.  Clearinghouses, Billing Services and/or other Third Party Entities are NOT ALLOWED to sign enrollment forms and must not submit them on behalf of the supplier.

  • Supplier Name Does Not Match Medicare Database

The Supplier Name on the enrollment form must match the Legal Business Name as it is in PECOS to be accepted. To verify the Supplier/Provider name please contact the NPEAST at 1-866-520-5193 or NPWEST at 1-866-238-9652 or access PECOS at https://pecos.cms.hhs.gov/pecos/login.do External Link .

New forms are only required if modifications are needed to your current enrollment.
