Remittance Advice Notice
Your current RA message is as follows:

New 1099 Process
December 14, 2006

Medicaid providers will see a change in the 1099s received for 2006 reporting Medicaid payments. Effective for calendar year 2006 and forward, ACS will no longer be generating and mailing a separate 1099 for Medicaid payments. The Department of Administration will be combining all payments by tax identification number into one 1099 instead of a separate 1099 for each Medicaid provider number. If you have any questions, please contact Roy Hinman at (406) 444-5932 or Susan Austad (406) 444-4060 at the Department of Public Health and Human Services.
