Earlier the status of Medicare claims can be obtained only through automated phone system but now all Medicare contractors are working closely with CMS to integrate “Individuals Authorized Access to the CMS Computer Services (IACS)” to offer secure and fast access to beneficiary eligibility, claims status, online remittances, financial information, PQRS and eRx incentive details, Preventive services, Hospice / Home Health services and more. Through IACS, an individual will be able to register for any of the CMS applications.
