CMS Pub. 100-04, ch. 30, § 150.10.2
Beneficiary Given Advance Beneficiary Notice and Agreed to
Pay
(Rev. 1587, Issued: 09-05-08, Effective: 03-03-08, Implementation: 03-01-09)
A supplier which has given the beneficiary an ABN and has obtained the beneficiary’s
signed statement agreeing to pay, is not required to make a refund. If the supplier claims
to have given an ABN to the beneficiary, the contractor will ask the supplier to furnish a
copy of the ABN. Examine the ABN to determine whether it meets the standards in §40.3
and §50. In the absence of acceptable evidence of advance beneficiary notice, go on to
§150.10.3.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
