CMS Pub. 100-08, ch. 10, § 10.3.2.9
CMS-20134 (Section 13 – Contact Person)
(Regarding the Contact Person section of the Form CMS-20134, see sections 10.3 and 10.6.9 of
this chapter. Except as otherwise stated, the PECOS policies in section 10.3 supersede those in
section 10.6.9.)
If Section 13 is completely blank, the contractor need not develop for this information and
can simply contact an authorized or delegated official. If neither box in Section 13 is
checked but the contact person information is incomplete (e.g., no telephone number
listed), the contractor can either: (1) develop for this information by telephone, the PCV, email, or fax; or (2) contact an authorized or delegated official.
There is no current option on the Form CMS-20134 to delete a contact person. Therefore,
the contractor shall accept the end-date of a contact person via telephone, email, the PCV,
fax, or mail from the individual supplier, the authorized or delegated official, or a current
contact person on file. The contractor shall document in PECOS who requested the
termination, how it was requested (email, phone or fax), and when it was requested. The
addition of contact persons must still be reported via the Form CMS-20134.
(See section 10.6.9 of this chapter for more information regarding the Contact Person
section of the Form CMS-20134.)
