Maintaining Records of Compliance
As a requirement, FDRs must maintain records that evidence compliance with CMS requirements for a minimum of 10 years. Examples of records that must be maintained include, but are not limited to:
- Employee training records
- CMS Certificate of FWA training completion
- Attestations
- Training logs
- Any other documentation that you determine represents your fulfillment of your obligations under your contract with CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield Advantage
If you and/or your employees are deemed to have met the FWA training requirements through enrollment into Parts A or B of the Medicare program or through accreditation as a supplier of DMEPOS, you should provide proof of the deemed status. We expect all FDRs to maintain these records for a minimum of 10 years. You will also be required to provide copies of such records when required for CMS Program Audits and CareFirst delegation oversight audits.
