The following Quick Guide lists all of the steps necessary for a MA-11 cost report to
be accepted. You must complete all of the steps listed below for your facility's
cost report to be accepted by the Department. Refer to the section of this end user
manual that is listed in each step for further instructions.
Step 1: Complete the MA-11 Cost Report using the correct forms for the filing
period.
Step 2: Create a cost report standard file in one of two ways. If using an MA-11
software program that creates the standard file for you, follow the software
instructions to create the standard file. Otherwise, download the standard
Excel spreadsheet template following instructions starting in Section 4,
"EXCEL SPREADSHEET TEMPLATE DATA ENTRY" on page 7.
Step 3: Submit the cost report standard file to the MA-11 Cost Report Submission
System using the instructions starting in Section 5, "ESTABLISHING THE
WEB SITE CONNECTION" on page 11 and wait to receive the Initial
Feedback Report.
Step 4: Re-connect to the MA-11 Cost Report Submission System using the
instructions starting in Section 5, "Final Validation Report" on page 17 and
view your Final Validation Report. If the report indicates any errors, repeat
steps 2 and 3. If the report indicates that your cost report standard file was
valid, go to Step 5.
Step 5: View and print your Certification Report using the instructions starting in
Section 5, "Certification Report" on page 22.
Step 6: Gather all supporting documents indicated on the Certification Report and
label them using the document title on the Certification Report. Put the
documents in the order in which they appear on the Certification Report.
Step 7: Make one copy of the Certification Report. Sign the original and the copy
in all applicable areas on the Certification Report, for a total of two
documents with original signatures.
Step 8: Mail both copies of the signed Certification Report and one copy of all
supporting documents to the address located in Section 5, Page 25. The
package must be received by the Department on or before the cost reporting
deadline.

REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
The MA-11 is the Financial and Statistical Report for Nursing Facilities and Services
under the Medical Assistance (MA) Program (referred to in this end user manual as
the cost report). Each MA provider reports on either a January 1 through December
31 or July 1 through June 30 period, as designated by the nursing facility. The
reporting period may only be changed in the event of the sale of the nursing facility
to a new owner. The annual reporting process requires the filing of the cost report
within 120 days following the June 30 or December 31 period. No extensions are
granted except upon evidence of fraud or a breakdown in the Department's
administrative process.
If the cost report is timely filed but is unacceptable, the provider is notified of the
corrections needed. Corrections must be made and all supporting documents must be
received by the Department by the correction deadline as described in Section 5,
"Filing Deadlines" on page 25.
MA-11 COST REPORT SUBMISSION SYSTEM WEB SITE
The process of submitting and validating cost report data has been automated by the
development of a web site, the MA-11 Cost Report Submission System. This web
site performs edits on the submitted data, provides feedback on the results of the
validations process and acts as a repository for facility cost report data submitted by
the facility or their cost report preparer.
The MA-11 Cost Report Submission System may be accessed using one of two
methods. For users that have access to the Internet, the facility may transmit a cost
report standard file using a web browser to access and to login to the Internet web
site. If a user does not have an Internet service provider, the web site may be
accessed directly using a dial-up connection and web browser. Either method of
access to the MA-11 Cost Report Submission System is acceptable.
MA-11 COST REPORT SUBMISSION SYSTEM
SECTION 3 OVERVIEW • 4
Revised 2-16-2012
To submit a cost report standard file, the user is issued a Login ID and password by
the Department. These Login IDs and passwords are facility-specific and allow a
provider to submit cost report standard files and access validation reports only for
that facility. They do not allow the facility to submit cost report standard files or
access validation reports for any other facility. For facilities using an accountant's or
other third party services for the submission process, the facility must provide their
Login ID and password information to that party.
In addition to providing the ability to electronically submit the cost report standard
file, the MA-11 Cost Report Submission System web site is also accessible to the
general public in order to download or view informational documents and accepted
cost report data. Follow the instructions beginning in Section 5, "ESTABLISHING
THE WEB SITE CONNECTION" on page 11 to initially access the web site.
COST REPORT STANDARD FILE
The Department has specified a standard file format to be used when submitting cost
report data to the MA-11 Cost Report Submission System. Data submitted in any
other format will be rejected by the system. The cost report standard file format is
best described as a column of data with each row or record containing the response
to each question or data item on the MA-11 cost report schedules.
If you are using the Excel
spreadsheet template option,
see Appendix A for
instructions on obtaining the
spreadsheet template and
Section 4 for data entry
instructions.
The facility may submit either of two types of cost report standard files; a
spreadsheet file or a text file. For the spreadsheet option, an Excel spreadsheet
template is available for download into either Excel or Lotus and is set up in the
standard format. The facility data enters the cost report information directly into this
template and submits the file. Many cost report preparers have incorporated this
template into their existing programs, negating the need to re-data enter information
into the template. Alternatively, cost report preparers may incorporate a standard
text file format into their existing programs. Instructions for creating a text file are
included in "TEXT FILE" on page 51.
The Excel spreadsheet template is not a program or tool to be used by a provider in
completing the cost report and does not contain any formulas to aid in calculating
totals or any edits to ascertain accuracy or completeness of the cost report. The
template also does not contain worksheets that resemble the paper cost report
schedules. It is assumed that facilities already have a program or procedures in place
for completing the cost report. The Excel spreadsheet template does not interfere
with, or replace, these existing programs or procedures, but simply allows the results
of a completed cost report to be submitted in a manner that is common for all
providers.
MA-11 ACCEPTABILITY PROCESS
Do not mail a paper copy of
the MA-11 cost report
schedules to the Department.
Acceptability of the MA-11 is judged at three levels. The first level is the validation
of the data submitted in the standard file format to the MA-11 Cost Report
Submission System. Once received at the web site, the cost report standard file is
analyzed for inconsistencies and a report is generated for the provider. The analysis
is based on the Standard File validations beginning on page 27. Once all the
Standard File validations are met, the file is “valid” and the system produces a
Certification Report for download by the provider, which delineates additional
supporting documents required to be mailed with two copies of the signed
Certification Report to the Department. These documents are then reviewed by the
Department and must pass the Supporting Document and Manual Review
validations, which are the second and third levels of acceptability. The Supporting
MA-11 COST REPORT SUBMISSION SYSTEM
SECTION 3 OVERVIEW • 5
Revised 2-16-2012
Document and Manual Review validations begin on page 28. In order for the MA11 to be accepted, all three validation types must be met. The submission of the
supporting documents and the signature process is described in Section 6,
ACCEPTABILITY VALIDATIONS on page 27.

INTRODUCTION
Cost report data submitted to the MA-11 Cost Report Submission System must be in
the standard file format. Some cost report preparers and/or accounting firms that
have MA-11 preparation software or spreadsheets have incorporated the standard file
format into their existing program. In these cases, follow the instructions provided
with the MA-11 program to create the cost report standard file and skip to the next
section of this manual. If programs of this type are not used to create the cost report
schedules, complete the cost report schedules manually, and then data enter the
results into the Excel spreadsheet template in order to create the cost report standard
file. This template may be downloaded by following the instructions in Appendix A.
Direct data entry into the Excel spreadsheet template is estimated to take less than
two hours.
EXCEL SPREADSHEET TEMPLATE DATA ENTRY
To use the Excel spreadsheet template to create a cost report standard file, you must
first download the template from the Cost Report Update Page found by clicking on
the Downloads option on the MA-11 Cost Report Welcome Page. After you have
downloaded the template, open it in either Lotus Symphony or Microsoft Excel.
After the file has been opened, the template will appear on the screen (Figure 4-1 on
page 8).

COLUMN NAME
FIELD TYPE
DESCRIPTION
The type of field which the data submitted within the text file
will be converted to by the submission system prior to validating
the data. Options are Character, Date and Numeric. Specific
rules that apply to the text file for each field type are as follows:
Character: Do not use hyphens or parentheses for phone
numbers or tax ID numbers. When an MA-11 cost report date
item field type is "Character”, the item will be validated in the
format in which it is submitted, such as MM/DD/YYYY, MDD-YY or MM/YY.
Date: In the text file, all fields with field type "Date" must be in
the format MM/DD/YYYY.
Numeric: In the text file, do not use hyphens, dollar signs or
percent signs.
To start data entry into the template, move the cursor to Column A, Line 2. Leave
row 1 as "DATA V5.0." Enter the desired information into the field using the
sequentially numbered cost report schedules in Appendix C as a guide. In general,
the data is sequentially entered from the cost report forms starting at the top of the
first column to the bottom of the first column, then moving to the next column of the
cost report schedules. Use the Enter key or down arrow key to move the cursor from
field to field. Be very careful to enter information into the correct field.
The numbers contained in the SEQ column do not match the row numbers on the
spreadsheet. To make data entry less confusing, you may remove the row and
column headers on an Excel spreadsheet by:
1.
Select the TOOLS main menu option.
2.
Select the OPTIONS option from the TOOLS sub-menu.
3.
Select the View tab.
4.
In the Windows Options section, remove the checkmark from the Row
& Column Headers selection.
5.
Select the OK button.
You may remove the row and column headers on a Lotus spreadsheet by:
1.
Select the SHEET main menu option.
2.
Select the SHEET PROPERTIES option from the SHEET sub-menu.
3.
Select the View tab.
4.
Remove the checkmark from the Sheet Frame selection.
5.
Close the Sheet Properties window.
All fields, except for those that are to be left blank, have to be data entered into the
template, including total fields. No fields are calculated. If you use formulas to
calculate totals during data entry, you must convert the formulas to values prior to
submitting the template. If the template is submitted with formulas in Column A
DATA V5.0, the file may not be valid.
Any special data entry instructions for a field are contained in the MA-11
Instructions and Schedules that was published in the MA Bulletin. Refer to these
instructions for guidance when data entering the cost report information into the
template.
Be sure to save each template created for a cost report period with a different name.
If using Lotus, the file must be saved as version .WK4 or lower. Lotus files with a

Feedback Report (which will indicate whether the submission was received) prior to
continuing with any other cost report or Internet browser functions. If, for some
reason, you do not wish to wait for the Initial Feedback Report, you may choose
Cancel to discontinue the submission process. However, selecting Cancel will
disrupt the submission of your file. To confirm that you want to continue the
process, select OK.
Once you have confirmed the send command, you should remain at the MA-11 File
Submission window and not execute any additional cost report or browser functions
until you receive an Initial Feedback Report. The Initial Feedback Report indicates
that the MA-11 Cost Report Submission System has received the cost report standard
file.
The next section provides more detailed information about the validation process and
reports.
INITIAL FEEDBACK REPORT, FINAL VALIDATION
REPORT AND CERTIFICATION REPORT
The validations are itemized
in Section 6 of this manual.
Once the cost report standard file is received, the MA-11 Cost Report Submission
System will validate the file structure and data content. These validations are based
on the MA-11 Acceptability Validations. The system generates two reports; an
Initial Feedback Report, which indicates that the cost report standard file has been
submitted and the Final Validation Report, which provides a detailed account of any
errors found during the validation of the submitted cost report standard file or
provides information concerning the rejection of the cost report standard file. After
a cost report standard file has been successfully submitted and all data has passed the
validations, a Certification Report is generated. All reports are formatted as text
files with column specifications so that they may be easily read, printed or
downloaded.

Initial Feedback Report
The Initial Feedback Report should be received shortly after submitting the cost
report standard file while you remain on-line (Figure 5-9 on page 17).
Figure 5-9 Initial Feedback Report
The time it takes to generate and return the Initial Feedback Report may depend on
the modem speed and system activity; however, you should remain on the MA-11
File Submission window until you receive the report. The Initial Feedback Report

The actual time it takes to generate the Final Validation Report may depend on
system activity; therefore, it is not necessary for you to remain on-line to wait for
this report. You may terminate the communication connection by following the
instructions presented earlier in this manual.
If the cost report standard file was rejected, this will be clearly indicated in the detail
section. You will need to make corrections to the cost report standard file, save the
corrected file and resubmit it. Examples of rejection criteria include corrupted file
structure, invalid facility identification or incorrect cost report begin and end periods.
In these cases, no data will be extracted. Your Final Validation Report will indicate
the rejection error(s) and no further validation will take place.
If the cost report standard file is not rejected, the detail section of the Final
Validation Report indicates the type and number of errors encountered in the cost
report standard file that was sent. You may choose to exit the MA-11 Cost Report
Submission System after receiving the Initial Feedback Report verifying receipt
of the cost report standard file and come back at a later time to access the Final
Validation Report.
Final Validation Reports are accessed from the MA-11 Cost Report Main Menu.
Simply point and click on Receive Validation Reports. If you have initiated a new
session, you will access the MA-11 Cost Report Welcome Page and select MA-11
Cost Report Submissions. The Login ID and Password Required window will
appear for you to complete. If you are continuing an ongoing session and have
already completed a user log in, the Validation Report Listing window will appear

The error messages that can appear in the detail section of the Final Validation
Report are contained in Section 6 of this manual. Any errors that appear on the
validation reports must be corrected for the cost report standard file to be valid.
Certification Report
If no errors are found in a submitted cost report standard file, the Final Validation
Report will state this finding and prompt the facility to print the Certification Report
(see Figure 5-12 on page 22).
Figure 5-12 Certification Report
The Certification Report will be produced only for cost report standard files that
have a status of Received/Valid on the Final Validation Report or that the
Department has deemed to be valid. The report will provide the necessary signature
areas for the administrator and list all supporting documents that are required,
according to the responses in the cost report standard file, for the cost report to be
acceptable. For instance, all Certification Reports will have a Trial Balance as a
Required Supporting Document. However, only Certification Reports for cost report
standard files that indicate a Medicare rate on Schedule MA-58 will require a
supporting document that ties to this rate.
Certification Reports are accessed from the MA-11 Cost Report Main Menu. Simply
point and click on Receive Validation Reports. If you have initiated a new session,

the window to return to the MA-11 Cost Report Main Menu.
The Certification Report must be printed since it must be completed and mailed to
the Department.
Amending Submitted Data
Immediately following the submission of a valid cost report standard file, no
more cost report standard files for that cost report period will be validated.
Cost report standard files submitted after a valid status has been obtained will be
rejected. If the facility discovers an error in a valid cost report standard file, the
correction may be forwarded by mail to the Department along with the Certification
Report and the supporting documents. The corrected information will be
incorporated into the audit process. If the provider discovers an error on the
Certification Report or supporting documents after they are mailed to the
Department, an "amended" Certification Report or supporting documents will only
be accepted by the Department if the supporting document and manual review
process has not begun. If this process has begun, the "amended" Certification Report
and supporting documents will be returned to the provider. The "amended"
Certification Report and supporting documents may be maintained at the facility and
should be given to the auditor for consideration at the time of audit.
ACCEPTABILITY PROCESS
The signed Certification
Report and all supporting
documents are required to be
received by the Department
and must pass all Supporting
Document and Manual
Review validations for a cost
report to be acceptable.
Submitting a valid cost report standard file is only part of the filing process. To
complete the process, the facility administrator and the person who prepared the cost
report, if applicable, must sign all areas of the Certification Report and mail the
Certification Report and all the indicated supporting documents to the Department.
The Department must receive this package on or before the due date. Two legible
copies of the signed Certification Report and one legible copy of the supporting
documents is required. The Department will verify the supporting documents’
authenticity by comparison with the accompanying Certification Report. The
Department will also verify original signatures. If the Certification Report and
supporting documents pass all Supporting Document and Manual Review
validations, the cost report is accepted. If the appropriate supporting documents
have not been submitted or fully completed, if the signatures are not complete or are
not original or if only one Certification Report is received, the Department will
return the Certification Report Package and the cost report will be unacceptable.
The Certification Report consists of five areas plus the report header information.
While all sections will appear on every Certification Report, not all sections will
require action by the facility. The sections that require action are based on the data
submitted in the cost report standard file. These items are described in the following
table.

SECTION 5 SUBMISSION AND ACCEPTABILITY PROCESS • 24
Revised 2-16-2012
The MA-11 Cost Report Submission System does not require that a hard copy of the
MA-11 cost report be submitted with the Certification Report. Any hardcopy MA11 cost reports that are submitted will be discarded. Only the cost report standard
file will be used for audit and rate calculations.
The Certification Report and all supporting documents should be mailed or delivered
to the address noted at www.PAMA11.com.
Filing Deadlines
The MA-11 Cost Report Submission System does not alter Chapter 1187.80
regulations concerning failure to file a cost report. The following situations are
defined to illustrate this.
1.
If a facility has submitted a valid cost report standard file to the MA-11
Cost Report Submission System and the Certification Report and all
supporting documents have been received by the Department on or
before the 120th day and deemed acceptable by the Department, the cost
report is timely filed and acceptable. The MA-11 receipt date
recognized by the Department for the filing of the MA-11 is the date
the Certification Report Package is received at the address noted at
www.PAMA11.com; or is the date the Certification Report Package is
date-stamped as received by the Rate Setting Division, as of close of
business at 5 P.M. A postmark date is not the receipt date.
2.
If a facility has submitted a valid cost report standard file to the MA-11
Cost Report Submission System and the Certification Report and
supporting documents have been received by the Department on or
before the 120th day, but the signatures and/or some supporting
documents are incorrect or missing, the cost report is timely filed but
not acceptable. The facility has the latter of 30 days from the date of
the "not acceptable" letter or 30 days following the due date of the cost
report to correct and return the Certification Report and all supporting
documents. If these items are not received by the end of that time
period and deemed acceptable by the Department, the facility's rate will
be adjusted downward according to Chapter 1187.80. The receipt date
recognized by the Department is the date the Certification Report and
supporting documents are received at the address noted at
www.PAMA11.com or are received and stamped in by the Rate Setting
Division, as of the close of business at 5 P.M.
3.
When a provider fails to submit any cost report standard file, only a
rejected cost report standard file(s) or only a test cost report standard
file(s) to the MA-11 Cost Report Submission System within the first
120 days, the rate will be adjusted downward according to Chapter
1187.80. The reduced rate period stops on the date the Certification
Report and supporting documents are received by the Department, but
only after verifying that an acceptable Certification Report and
supporting documents were received and deemed acceptable by the
Department. If the Certification Report is incomplete or all supporting
documents weren't submitted or acceptable, the reduced rate is not
lifted until all steps are completed (valid cost report standard file,
complete Certification Report and all supporting documents are
received and acceptable). The receipt date recognized by the
Department is the date the Certification Report and supporting
documents are received at the address noted at www.PAMA11.com or

INTRODUCTION
Subchapter F., Cost Reporting and Audit Requirements of Chapter 1187, requires nursing
facilities to report costs to the MA Program by filing an acceptable MA-11 with the
Department. For MA-11 cost reports with years ending 12/31/2001 and after, the
Department obtains cost report data electronically via submission to an Internet/Intranet
web site.
As cost report standard files are submitted to the MA-11 Cost Report Submission System,
the fields included in the file are validated as a first step in determining acceptability.
Instructions for submitting the cost report standard file are found in Section 5 of this
manual. The validations for the cost report fields are included in this section of the manual.
The validations for the manual review of the Certification Report and the list of supporting
documents are also included in this section of the manual beginning on page 27.
In order for a cost report to be determined acceptable, all validations must be met and
two copies of the Certification Report and one copy of all required supporting
documents (makes up the Certification Report Package) must be received by the
Department by the filing date referenced at §1187.73 for annual cost reports and §1187.75
for final cost reports. County facilities should also refer to Chapter 1189. These
validations and processes will be required for all full year and partial year cost reports with
years ending 12/31/2001 and after.

STANDARD FILE METHODS
Glossary Terms Used In This Section: Cost Report Standard File, Department, Download, Excel Spreadsheet Template,
MA-11 Cost Report Submission System, Numbered Cost Report, Rejected File, Sequence Number, Spreadsheet File,
Text File, Validation. Definitions for these terms are found in Section 9.
INTRODUCTION
Alternate standard file
methods are only
recommended for cost report
preparers who complete
numerous cost reports for
each cost reporting period.
The cost report standard file may be incorporated into a provider’s, accountant’s or
software vendor’s existing MA-11 software or spreadsheet program in order to avoid
duplicate data entry into the Excel spreadsheet template. This section provides
suggestions on how this may be accomplished. However, since the process of
incorporating the standard file into existing programs could conceivably take many
hours, it would only be cost effective to attempt this task if the cost report preparer
completes numerous cost reports for each reporting period. Otherwise, the process
of data entering completed cost report information directly into the Excel
spreadsheet template is recommended, rather than this alternative method. Direct
data entry into the Excel spreadsheet template should take less than two hours. The
process of incorporating the standard file into existing programs could take 20 or
more hours, in addition to the time spent to test for accuracy.
The alternate data file may be created in one of two standardized file types: a
spreadsheet format or a text format. This section describes both types of files for
those who wish to incorporate the creation of the standard file within their existing
MA-11software, along with suggestions on how to proceed with this endeavor.
These are only suggestions: Myers and Stauffer or the Department does not
guarantee the results since the MA-11 programs used by providers and their cost
report preparers are outside of their areas of responsibility.
SPREADSHEET FILE
For the spreadsheet format option, an Excel spreadsheet template is provided by the
Department and may be used as a pattern. Refer to Appendix A for instructions on
how to download this template. The template may be linked to an existing MA-11
workbook, whether as a separate file or as a separate worksheet within the existing
MA-11 workbook. The links would most likely be developed by beginning in
Column A, Row 2 of the spreadsheet template (sequence number 1), Login ID.
Create a formula in this cell that “points” to the correct cell of the existing MA-11
MA-11 COST REPORT SUBMISSION SYSTEM
SECTION 7 ALTERNATIVE STANDARD FILE METHODS • 50
Revised 2-16-2012
workbook. Create a formula for each of the remaining rows of the spreadsheet
template. Leave row 1 as "DATA V5.0."
After the links for each row are completed, the formulas must be converted to values
prior to saving the template and submitting the file to the MA-11 Cost Report
Submission System. This could be accomplished manually or through the use of a
macro or program. Extra care must be taken to maintain the correct required format
for each cell in the submission file. The correct format requirements may be found
in the Excel spreadsheet template or in the Standard File Validation descriptions.
The standard file may be saved as either an Excel or Lotus file. If Lotus is used,
save as a .wk4 or lower version (.123 cannot be used at this time).
Only Column A of the standard file must be submitted to the MA-11 Cost Report
Submission System. However, the submission of additional columns, rows or
worksheets will not lead to a rejected file, but the additional information will be
ignored by the system. If a provider is submitting a workbook to the MA-11 Cost
Report Submission System, the standard file described above must be placed as the
first worksheet in the workbook. Submitting the entire workbook, rather than just
the standard file, results in a longer wait for the user while submitting due to the size
of the workbook compared to the size of the standard file worksheet, only.
TEXT FILE
The text file option was created for use by software vendors whose MA-11 program
can be modified to create a text file from the tables used by the MA-11 program to
store cost report data. For the text file option, create a table with one field. The size
for the field should be 100 characters (the greatest maximum field size in the
standard spreadsheet template). Record 1 should contain "DATA V5.0.” Following
the sequence of data in the Excel spreadsheet template or the numbered cost report
file in Appendix C, append each data item as a subsequent record in text format. For
example, record 2 would be sequence number 1, Facility ID. Record 3 would be
sequence number 2, Test (T or F), and so forth. If a data item is blank, append a
blank record as a placeholder. When completed, the table should contain only 1,741
records, the number of records to create a text file for one provider’s cost report.
Copy the table to an ASCII text file with the extension as .txt. Each record should be
terminated with a carriage return and line feed characters. Blank records should
contain only the carriage return and line feed.
FILE NAMING CONVENTION
Once the alternative standard cost report file has been created for a certain reporting
year, the file may be named in any convention created by the user or the software
creating the file. The file will be renamed by the submission system.

MYERS AND STAUFFER HELPDESK
Myers and Stauffer is a Department consultant, contracted to administer the MA-11
Cost Report Submission System, the NIS+, calculate MA Case-Mix Reimbursement
rates and provide technical support for the submission of records to the CMS MDS
2.0 Data Collection System. The Myers and Stauffer Helpdesk is available for
questions from providers and cost report preparers concerning the submission of the
cost report standard file and interpretation of the validation reports.
When contacting the
helpdesk, please indicate that
you have a question
concerning the MA-11 cost
report.
•
The phone number for the helpdesk is 717-541-5809. If the staff is
unable to answer your call directly due to heavy call volume or during
non-business hours, leave a voice mail message with your name, the
facility name or organization name and the phone number. It is also
important to indicate that the question concerns the MA-11 cost report
since the helpdesk staff also support MDS submissions.
•
The amount of space in the voice mail account is limited, so we ask that
callers only leave the minimum amount of information necessary to
identify the caller, the facility, the telephone number with area code and
extension and “MA-11 question.” This will allow as many callers as
possible to leave messages before the voice mail account is full and
will not accept any more messages.
•
The voice mail account will be checked by the helpdesk frequently
during business hours to avoid having the account become full.
However, during non-business hours when the account is not being
checked, it may become full and no longer accept any messages. If you
are unable to leave a voice mail message because the account is full,
you may choose to fax your question as described below. Messages
that are left in the voice mail account will be answered in the order that
they are received.
•
The FAX number for the helpdesk is 717-541-5802. Please be as
descriptive as possible so that the helpdesk representative may research
your question prior to calling you. When faxing a question, please
include your name and the provider name and MA number, if
applicable. The help desk will contact you as soon as possible; please
do not fax the same message multiple times.

representative is unable to answer the caller’s question, the helpdesk representative
will take the caller’s name and phone number and research the question. The caller
will be contacted when a response is determined.
PROBLEMS NOT SUPPORTED
Some problem areas will not be supported by the Myers and Stauffer Helpdesk
because they are the responsibility of other entities or are outside of the cost report
standard file submission arena.
•
Questions regarding programs that have been developed internally by
the provider or purchased for use to complete the MA-11. This
includes running the program, creating the cost report standard file,
transmitting the files and any errors within the program. Technical
support must be provided to the facility by the vendor.
•
Support for installation of hardware devices (modems, printer, etc.).
•
