RECOVERY - FISS Electronic Health Payment

Pinnacle Business Solutions, Inc., the current holder of the CMS Fiscal Intermediary Standard System (FISS) Maintainer contract awarded in 2006, has a pending modification to its contract to support the implementation of the Electronic Health Record (EHR) Incentive Program mandated under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. This program provides incentive payments to Acute Care Hospitals and Critical Access Hospitals that demonstrate meaningful use of certified EHR technology. The contract modification aims to enhance the FISS by updating provider screens to enable the exchange of all necessary EHR incentive payment information with the National Level Repository (NLR), building on previous modifications that established communication pathways for EHR payment data. The contract opportunity, titled "RECOVERY - FISS Electronic Health Payment" and identified by solicitation number 110499, is focused on these system changes and is based in Baltimore, Maryland. The contract falls under the NAICS code 518210. Key contacts include Anginna Sims and Contracting Officer Andy S. Mummert, who are available for further inquiries. The modification reflects CMS’s ongoing efforts to facilitate the timely and accurate processing of EHR incentive payments through updated technological capabilities within the existing FISS framework.
