Medicare Participation & PECOS Enrollment Status

Kevin Apel is registered with Medicare but maybe doesn't accept claims assignment. If you are a Medicare beneficiary call and confirm with the provider before seeking any services.

What is PECOS?
PECOS is the online Medicare enrollment management system or Provider, Enrollment, Chain and Ownership System. The PECOS system is a database of providers who have registered with CMS as providers or suppliers. PECOS is the primary source of information about verified Medicare professionals. Providers that want to participate in this program need to enroll in PECOS with their NPI number to avoid denied claims.

PECOS PAC ID: 7618366287
What is the PECOS Associate Control ID?
A PAC ID is a unique 10-digit number assigned to an individual or organization healthcare provider in PECOS. The PAC ID is used to link together all the provider information, like tax identification numbers and organizational names. A PAC ID can be connected to multiple Enrollment IDs if an individual or organization has enrolled in PECOS more than once.
PECOS Enrollment ID: I20211119002490
What is the Provider Enrollment ID?
The Enrollment ID is a unique alphanumeric 15-digit code assigned to each new provider's PECOS enrollment application. The Enrollment ID is used to link together all the provider enrollment information like enrollment type, state, provider specialty, and reassignment of benefits.
Accepts Medicare Assignment? Maybe
What does it mean "accepts medicare assignment"?
When a provider accepts Medicare assignment, the provider agrees to be paid directly by Medicare and to accept the payment amount approved by Medicare. Additionally, the provider agrees to not bill patients for more than the Medicare deductible and coinsurance amounts.
A provider who doesn't accept assignment may charge you up to 15% over the Medicare-approved amount. This is known as the limiting charge. You may have to pay this amount, or it may be covered by another insurer.

NPI Validation Check Digit Calculation

The following table explains the step by step NPI number validation process using the ISO standard Luhn algorithm.

Start with the original NPI number, the last digit is the check digit and is not used in the calculation.
1	7	5	0	8	7	0	0	4	4
Step 1: Double the value of the alternate digits, beginning with the rightmost digit.
2	7	10	0	16	7	0	0	8
Step 2: Add all the doubled and unaffected individual digits from step 1 plus the constant number 24.
2 + 7 + 1 + 0 + 0 + 1 + 6 + 7 + 0 + 0 + 8 + 24 = 56
Step 3: Subtract the total obtained in step 2 from the next higher number ending in zero, the result is the check digit.
60 - 56 = 4									4

The NPI number 1750870044 is valid because the calculated check digit 4 using the Luhn validation algorithm matches the last digit of the original NPI number.
