The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has redesigned the homepage and log-in screen of the Provider Enrollment, Chain, and Ownership System (PECOS) website. According to National Government Services' Jurisdiction B Durable Medical Equipment Medicare Administrative Contractor (DME MAC), CMS made the changes to provide an easier way for users to register for a PECOS account and update personal information. The redesigned website also features additional helpful links, including PECOS enrollment tutorials, the Ordering and Referring List, and the Revalidation Notice Sent List.

Users will also now be able to see if their revalidation application has been received and processed by the Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC). Also, a reassignment report is now available for all organizations and individuals that are accepting reassignments.
