the following "Scam Alert Notice" --
CMS has become aware of a scam where perpetrators are

(MAC). The fax instructs physician staff to respond to a
questionnaire to provide an account information update
within 48 hours in order to prevent a gap in Medicare
payments. The fax may have the CMS logo and/or the
