On August 7, CMS issued transmittal R1793CP to modify one aspect of the logic that the Part A shared system uses in marking claims as RAC adjustment claims for crossover purposes. CMS also modified the Common Working File logic used in association with 100% reimbursable Part B claims that contain denied service lines. The changes become effective January 1, 2010.
