Over the past eighteen months, HBMA has been working with CMS to provide feedback regarding the use of and making improvements to the Internet-based Provider Enrollment, Chain and Ownership System, also known as PECOS. While many of you may still be using paper as your form of provider enrollment, we would encourage you to use the PECOS system as many improvements have and continue to be made to that system based on feedback from HBMA and other stakeholders.

CMS is excited to announce that PECOS Web has successfully added the new feature E-Signature! Through this new process providers applying through PECOS Web will be able to electronically sign the enrollment application, omitting the need for a “wet” signature. This new process should help in reducing the time needed to process your application.
Please provide us with feedback about this new feature or new features you would like to see us incorporated into PECOS. Send your comments to sherri@hbma.org.
