For future billings to Medical Assistance, be sure to indicate both the provider and payee identification numbers. Payment will then be made to the group and will be reflected on the group s 1099 under the appropriate tax ID number. If you became enrolled with a group during the calendar year, but received payments directly before enrolling with the group, you will receive a 1099 indicating the total of payments that were made directly to you and reported under your social security number. Also, if payments were made directly to you even after you enrolled in the group because the claims submitted did not include a payee number, then the 1099 form reflects the correct taxpayer identification number, and we cannot issue a revised 1099 form. I received a 1099 form from Medical Assistance.
Remittance advices are to be retained in providers offices for at least four years.
This process must be completed before the close of the tax year to be reflected on that calendar year s 1099.
