CMS to Host Webinar on the New “Go Paperless” Feature Available in the Medicare Secondary Payer Recovery Portal
Yesterday, CMS issued an Alert that it will host a Webinar on its new “Go Paperless” feature available in the Medicare Secondary Payer Recovery Portal (MSPRP). The alert states the following:
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will be hosting an overview of the new “Go Paperless” feature available in the Medicare Secondary Payer Recovery Portal (MSPRP). Insurers and authorized agents may now choose to opt-in to paperless functionality. Once registered, users will be able to quickly and easily access all recovery correspondence including demand letters, using the MSPRP. Opting to “Go Paperless” in combination with the ability to submit correspondence through the MSPRP and the multiple available options for electronic payment will allow your organization to not only reduce the amount of paper that needs to be physically handled, associated workload and environmental impacts, but also eliminate concerns about delays that can arise when information is sent through the mail.
The webinar will feature opening remarks and a presentation, followed by a question and answer session.

Commentary: Sanderson Firm previously blogged about CMS moving towards full paperless following updates to the NGHP User Guide in January 2022. While industry stakeholders may consult the NGHP User Guide (Section 111 / TIN Reference File focused) and the MSPRP User Guide (portal focused) for details regarding the Go Paperless feature, the CMS Webinar should help clarify how the MSPRP and Section 111 reporting interact to provide stakeholders with a more seamless process. We commend CMS for modernizing their systems and providing an open forum to fully explain this new feature. Sanderson Firm will be attending the CMS Webinar and will provide a summary of the Webinar after it is hosted on the 13th.
