History:

Specialty Insurance Services, LLC (SIS) was founded in 2001 to serve as the back office management (Attorney-In-Fact) for Positive Mutual Risk Retention Group (PMRRG), a South Carolina domiciled Risk Retention Group insuring Pennsylvania physicians for their malpractice coverage.

In July of 2004, PMRRG transitioned to a Pennsylvania domiciled Reciprocal Insurance Exchange; Positive Physicians Insurance Exchange (PPIX) and SIS remains as back office support for the Pennsylvania medical malpractice insurer who currently insures 400 multi-specialty physicians.

SIS is directly responsible for underwriting, billing and policy issuance and remotely works with third party administrators such as claim and risk management services, actuaries, reinsurers, regulatory compliance, accountants, and independent auditors.

Alternative Insurance Products and Services In order to comply with the new Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) reporting requirements as outlined in Medicare, Medicaid, and SCHIP Extension Act of 2007 Section 111, SIS has developed our own software; Compliance™ Medicare Reporting Systems.

In early 2009 CMS released information that effective March 2010 all insurers (including self insured entities) must report liability, workers compensation, and no fault claim settlements, awards, and judgments that involved a Medicare beneficiary to CMS. There are in excess of 150 fields of data that need to be transmitted to CMS.

CMS has indicated that there will be a $1,000 per day/per claim fee that will be charged to a Responsible Reporting Entity (RRE) for incorrect or late reports. Reporting is done on a quarterly basis at a time specified to each RRE by CMS.

In addition to the quarterly reporting, CMS is suggesting that each claimant is queried to determine if they are or ever have been a Medicare beneficiary.

The software is designed to be user-friendly and affordable. It will enable you to:

  • Enter and save all necessary claim data into the autonomous CMRS software
  • Edit previously entered data
  • Submit all required data electronically
  • Receive e-mail reminder alerts prior to scheduled reporting periods
  • Collect confidential data from defense counsel via a secure electronically transferred form
  • Download Medicare required updates/upgrades without additional costs
  • The entire Compliance TM Medicare Reporting Systems program can be added to an existing software program at an added cost
