Some frequently asked questions and answers regarding your 1099 is found below.
- What should I do if I did not receive my 2019 1099?
Answer: If your mailing address is correct in our records, please be advised that we combine all payments you received from our Medicare Parts A and B contracts for each individual Tax ID number, under a single 1099. Please check with all your office sites.
If your mailing address is incorrect or not current on our files, then a new CMS Form 855 is needed. The 855 can be found on our website under Provider Resources > Forms. Send the completed 855 to the respective mailing address below, addressed to NGS Provider Enrollment.
Note: If you received less than $600 from NGS for CY 2019, no 1099 will be issued or sent to you.

Answer: Your 1099 includes all payments you received from our Medicare Parts A and B contracts for each individual Tax ID number. Further, the amount on the Form 1099 may not match the amount of the payments received, if there were offsets applied for receivables due to Medicare. If you still disagree with the amount, please contact us at 877-232-1099, starting 2/3/2020.
