CMS to launch provider satisfaction survey

The annual Medicare Contractor Provider Satisfaction Survey launches this month. Last week the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) announced that it would begin notifying the 30,000 providers who have been randomly selected for participation. Participation in the survey is confidential and voluntary. While the survey can be completed online, answers can also be submitted by mail, telephone or fax.

CMS will release results later this year. Additional information is available on the CMS Web site.
