Noridian Medicare Portal Eligibility and MBI Lookup Tool Enhancements
Effective June 15, 2020 the Noridian Medicare Portal (NMP) has been updated to provide additional information to the Eligibility and Medicare Beneficiary Identifier (MBI) Lookup tool responses.
MBI Lookup Tool
The MBI Lookup tool will now provide the MBI if a deceased beneficiary has a date of death on file within the last four years of the current date. Prior to June 15, 2020, the MBI Lookup Tool only provided the MBI if the date of death occurred within 13 months prior to the date of the search.
Eligibility
The Home Health Episode History (HHEH) tab within an Eligibility inquiry will now display the Patient Status Code along with the description of that code. This will help determine if the patient is continuing to receive home health benefits.
Preventive Services section will now include the human papillomavirus (HPV) HCPCS code G0476 on Eligibility responses for female beneficiaries. NMP will provide the next eligible date for this service.
