How to Get Credentialed with CGS Administrators (DME B/C) in Florida

CGS Administrators (DME MAC Jurisdiction C) processes all Medicare DMEPOS claims for Florida. Florida has one of the largest DMEPOS markets in the country due to its large elderly population. Suppliers enroll via PECOS using CMS-855S. A $50,000 surety bond and CMS-approved accreditation are required. CMS has designated multiple South Florida counties (Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach) as high-risk areas for DMEPOS, imposing enhanced screening including fingerprint-based background checks, unannounced site visits, application fees, and potential temporary moratoria on new enrollments. A valid NPI is required, and revalidation is every 5 years. Initial enrollment takes 60–120 days, potentially longer in high-risk areas.
