FFS Provider Partnership Program

Welcome to the Fee-For-Service (FFS) Provider Partnership Program Overview page. The Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), Provider Communications Group (PCG), Division of Provider Relations & Outreach (DPRO) is responsible for developing and implementing national provider education campaigns on various Medicare FFS-related subjects. While we have various mechanisms to ensure that educational materials reach the appropriate audiences, we have found that one of the best ways to reach audiences is through collaborative work with national health care professional associations.

For individual providers or local issues, your local Medicare contractor (carrier, fiscal intermediary, or Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC)) is a valuable source of news and information regarding Medicare business in your specific practice location. Through their email lists, your local contractor can quickly provide you with information pertinent to your geographic area, such as local coverage determinations, and local provider education activities.
