Due to the last-minute action by Congress on the Physician Fee Schedule, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is extending Medicare's 2013 Annual Participation Enrollment Program.

The participation enrollment period will now end Feb. 15, 2013, instead of Dec. 31, 2012. This allows extra decision making time for those who may still be considering their options. For more information about declaring your Medicare participant/nonparticipant status, please visit the CMS website.
