CMS is mandated to identify and implement measures to prevent fraud and abuse in the Medicare program. To meet this challenge, CMS has moved forward to improve the quality of the process for enrolling suppliers into the Medicare program by establishing a uniform application for enumerating suppliers of durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies (DMEPOS). Implementation of enhanced procedures for verifying the enrollment information has also improved the enrollment process. As part of this process, verification of compliance with supplier standards is necessary. The site investigation form has been used in the past to aid the Medicare contractor (the National Supplier Clearinghouse and/or its subcontractors) in verifying compliance with the required supplier standards found in 42 CFR 424.57(c). The primary function of the site investigation form is to provide a standardized, uniform tool to gather information from a DMEPOS supplier that tells us whether it meets certain qualifications to be a DMEPOS supplier (as found in 42 CFR 424.57(c)) and where it practices or renders its services.
