Do I need to notify Railroad Medicare that a provider's address has changed? I have already notified our local Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC).

Answer 
Yes, you need to notify Railroad Medicare when you have changed a provider’s address with your local Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC). Once you receive confirmation that the address has been updated with your MAC, please allow 7-14 business days before sending notification to Railroad Medicare.

You can fax or send written notification of the address change to our Provider Enrollment unit. Please send your request on your provider/practice letterhead and include the following information: 

• Railroad Medicare PTAN
• NPI
• Tax Identification Number
• Contact information
• Prior/old address
• New address 
• Copy of Part B MAC notice confirming address change has been completed

You can fax the request to (803) 382-2415 or mail the request to:
