I am a pharmacy supplying mostly drugs and pharmaceuticals along with a small amount of other medical equipment. Am I still required to be accredited?


Answer: 

To be consdered for exemption, pharmacies must complete and submit the attestation statement to the NPWest. 

For additional information, please review the Pharmacy Attestation Information (Revised) article/form and the portions of section 2 of the CMS 855S which reference products/services, accreditation, type of supplier and the non-accredited products. To download the CMS 855s, visit the Medicare Provider-Supplier Enrollment information on the CMS website. 

If a supplier does not meet the criteria to be exempt, then accreditation is required.
