CMS Pub. 100-06, ch. 3, § 140.5.2

Single Provider Serviced by a Contractor

activein force · 2026-08-25 – presentas-observed

When a single provider, who is serviced by a Contractor, files for bankruptcy, the same principle for

processing a bankruptcy of a chain provider will apply. The CMS Bankruptcy Analyst, in coordination

with CMS Counsel, will oversee the initial bankruptcy case and work directly with the Contractor/s,

informing them of the proper actions to take with respect to recovering Medicare overpayments. The

servicing CMS Office and CMS Counsel are responsible for making all decisions and will communicate

with Contractors regarding all aspects of the bankruptcy.
