Today is Target DMEPOS Competitive Bidding Registration Deadline
for Authorized Officials

We would like to remind all suppliers interested in participating in the Round 1 Rebid of the Medicare DMEPOS (Durable Medical Equipment, Prosthetics, Orthotics, and Supplies) Competitive Bidding Program that registration for user IDs and passwords is open. If you are interested in bidding, you must designate one Authorized Official (AO) from those listed on the CMS-855S enrollment form to act as your AO for registration purposes. Today is the target deadline for all AOs to register – we strongly urge all AOs who have not already registered to register TODAY to ensure that they have time to designate other supplier employees to use the online bidding system. Suppliers that do not register will not be able to bid when bidding opens.

AOs who successfully register should receive their user IDs and passwords in the mail within 10 days after successful registration. After an AO successfully registers and receives his or her user ID and password, the AO may designate other supplier employees to serve as Backup Authorized Officials (BAO) and/or End Users (EU). BAOs and EUs must also register in order to be able to use the online bidding system. The legal name, date of birth, and Social Security number (SSN) of the AO and BAOs must match what is on file with the National Supplier Clearinghouse (NSC) in order to register successfully.

Registering now allows the AO and/or BAO time to correct the supplier’s NSC records if their name, date of birth, and SSN does not match what is on file with NSC. We recommend that BAOs register no later than October 9, 2009, so that they will be able to assist AOs with approving EU registration. Registration will close on November 4, 2009, at 9:00 p.m. EST – no AOs, BAOs, or EUs can register after registration closes. To register, please go to the Registration section of this website.

If you have any questions about the registration process, please contact the CBIC Customer Service Center at 1-877-577-5331. For information about the competitive bidding areas and product categories included in the Round 1 Rebid, as well as bidder education materials, please review this website.
