The CBR program was created by The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) as an educational tool for providers, intended to enhance accurate billing and/or prescribing practices and support providers’ internal compliance activities. A CBR reflects a specific provider’s billing and/or prescribing patterns as compared to his/her peers’ patterns within a service area that may be prone to improper Medicare Part B payments. Each CBR is unique to a single provider, is disseminated only to that individual provider, and is not publically available. Receiving a CBR is not an indication of or precursor to an audit, and it requires no response on a provider’s part.
A CBR provides data regarding your claims submission, as compared to other providers’ claims submissions. The report is offered to facilitate an analysis of your billing submissions during a timeframe that may include the PHE. Please consider the changes that took place to your billing practices during the PHE when you review the data within this report.
