PECOS web runs about 45 to 60 days typical; paper or applications with information requests run 90 to 180 days
Recredentialing
Revalidation every 5 years with no grace period
CGS Administrators, as DME MAC for jurisdictions B and C is the Medicare Administrative Contractor that processes Part A and B enrollment (the 855 series) for DMEPOS claims in the midwestern and southern states. You do not apply to the MAC directly: PECOS auto routes your application to it based on your practice state. DMEPOS supplier ENROLLMENT itself runs through the National Provider Enrollment contractors (NPE East and West), separate from claims jurisdictions, and DMEPOS revalidates every 3 years.
The stall to avoid: PECOS web always beats paper, and a development request unanswered for 30 days is a rejection. Track your revalidation due date: CMS posts it about 7 months ahead.
