CMS Resumes Targeted Probe & Educate Program

According to the MLN Connects Newsletter published 8/12/21, CMS has resumed the Targeted Probe and Educate (TPE) Program. The TPE program has been suspended since the beginning of the pandemic.

The announcement states, “CMS is restarting the Targeted Probe and Educate (TPE) program to help educate providers and reduce future denials and appeals. If your Medicare Administrative Contractor audits you, take advantage of the TPE education, and get up to 3 rounds of educational claim review to help you bill accurately.”
