Please be advised that as of Friday, August 5, 2011 at 6 PM (Eastern Time), CMS will experience a temporary delay in processing of State MAPD files. Processing is expected to resume Monday, August 8, 2011 at 6 A M (Eastern Time). This delay is the result of Z196 Processor upgrade. As a result of this delay, beneficiaries who would have been newly deemed for the Low-Income Subsidy deeming and/or auto/facilitated enrolled during this time and that would have appeared on the TRR of Saturday, August 6, 2011, will instead be transmitted on the next daily TRR. All data will be available in CMS' systems as of Monday, August 8, 2011, and plans may use the Integrated User Interface (IUI) or Batch Eligibility Query (BEQ) to access them.
Please direct questions or concerns to the MAPD Help Desk at mapdhelp@cms.hhs.gov or 1-800-927-8069.
