CMS updates the 588 form for third time

The Physician Regulatory Issues Team (PRIT) reports CMS's electronic fund transfer (EFT) authorization form (CMS 588) has been updated, again.

Some Medicare providers had encountered a small problem with previous versions of the 588 this year. An applicant had 12 boxes to write down the practice's bank account number, even though some accounts have 13 digits.

The new 588 form (pdf) can now accommodate 13-digit account numbers.
