Reassignment of Benefits is NOT Required in Our Situation

According to the Code of Federal Regulations (42 CFR) and the Medicare Claims Processing Manual (Sections 30.2.9 and 30.2.9.1) there is no explicit requirement that a formal Reassignment of Benefits Statement be executed in the case of "Purchased Interpretations" or "Purchased Diagnostic Tests". Our service agreements do not involve reassignment at all, but are simply a means of purchasing interpretive services or test results.
