Abstract
This final rule adopts as final, and makes amendments to, the interim final rule published on August 15, 2003. That interim final rule implemented the statutory requirement that claims for reimbursement under the Medicare Program be submitted electronically as of October 16, 2003, except where waived. These regulations identify those circumstances for which mandatory submission of electronic claims to the Medicare Program is waived.
