RAP Overpayment Demand Letters Sent in Error

Attention Home Health Agencies

As of 10/1/2019, due to the implementation of CR10776, HHAs may have received a demand letter for a RAP overpayment. This letter instructed HHAs to either write a check to the MAC, request an immediate offset, or rebill the RAP if the final claim will be ready to bill within 30 days.

CMS has been made aware of this change and has made the necessary corrections within our systems to address this error to ensure that these RAP overpayments will be processed automatically for immediate offset. Therefore, if your HHA has received a RAP overpayment demand letter dated between 10/7/2019 to 10/25/2019, we ask that you please disregard that letter and that no further action is required to remit a check payment or initiate a request for immediate offset.
