The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) recently posted three important updates to its SNF Provider Enrollment Guidance and FAQ document.  
 

1. The section regarding the suspended application submission due dates for all SNFs was updated with new content, noting that SNFs that have not yet submitted their revalidation applications or had their revalidation applications rejected and have not submitted a new one are still required to submit said applications but may wait to do so until CMS announces a new due date. SNFs that have revalidation applications pending with their MAC can still expect to receive determination letters over the coming months.    
2. A new Q&A was added indicating that providers that have submitted revalidation applications must still meet the 30-day response time for providing additional information to the MAC.  
3. A new section regarding longstanding required provider enrollment data (non-SNF attachment data) was added where CMS reminds SNFs that all required data on the application must be furnished and all other requirements completed.
