CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP - CONTRACT SUPPLIER
NOTIFICATION FORM - 60 Day Notice
Per Article V of the DMEPOS competitive bidding contract and §414.422(d)(1), a contract supplier is obligated to notify Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid Services (CMS) at least 60 calendar days before the anticipated date of a change of ownership (CHOW). Failure to notify CMS may
result in a breach of contract.
The contracting supplier must also complete the Change of Ownership Purchaser form and submit it to the Competitive Bidding Implementation
Contractor (CBIC) along with other required documents at least 30 calendar days prior to the effective date of the CHOW. There are two
exceptions to this requirement. One is when a contract supplier is purchasing a non-contract supplier and the contract supplier continues to exist
and remains the supplier performing under the competitive bidding contract. The other exception is a stock transfer where the business continues to
exist and operate as before the sale of stock. In these situations, the contract supplier should complete the Contract Supplier Location Update form
if necessary to add or remove locations from the contract.
