CMS recently pulished updated info about MAC Jurisdiction J-7 (AR, LA, MS).  CMS said “In taking corrective action CMS plans to issue a new solicitation to procure the A/B Medicare Administrative Contractor Jurisdiction 7 workload previously solicited under RFP-CMS-2007-0002.  CMS anticipates initiating the new procurement action in calendar year 2010.”  In essence, CMS is re-bidding J-7, so who knows when we will see a final award!
