NTRODUCTION

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is a federal agency that ensures health care coverage for more than 100 million Americans. CMS administers Medicare and provides funds and guidance for all of the 50 states in the nation, for their Medicaid programs and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP). CMS works together with the CMS community and

organizations in delivering improved and better coordinated care.

What is EIDM?

CMS has established the Enterprise Identity Management (EIDM) website to provide our Business Partners with a means to apply for, obtain approval, and receive a single User ID they can use to access one or more CMS applications.

What is the EIDM User Guide?

This EIDM User Guide provides assistance, quick overviews, and basic step-by-step instructions on how to register for a User ID and password, applications and roles, and how to submit requests for access to former IACS applications that are now supported by EIDM.

This guide has three sections: • User Guide

The following are quick overviews on how the request for access and approval processes work.

How to Register for a User ID and Password

If you do not have a User ID and password, you will have to register and provide some personal information about yourself, and then create a User ID and password of your own choosing.

Note: Although EIDM allows you to create a User ID up to 74 characters, some applications have restrictions on the number of characters, and special characters, you can have in the User ID you create. Check with your CMS point of contact to identify restrictions for your application.

After successfully completing and submitting the request, you will receive a confirmation email, which will include your new User ID.

In the past, some of our CMS business partners registered for and were approved for an IACS User ID and password.

 If you have an IACS User ID and password, you do not have to register again for another User ID and password. Continue using your IACS User ID and password to log in.

The following is a quick overview of the key steps in registering for a User ID and password.

1. Navigate to https://portal.cms.gov.

2. On the CMS Portal page, select the New User Registration link. 3. Accept the Terms and Conditions.

(12)

5. Create a User ID and password on the Choose User ID and Password page.

6. Complete the “Select your Challenge Questions and Answers” section. 7. Submit the registration. You will receive an email acknowledging a

successful registration and the email will include your User ID.

How to Request Access to an Application and a Role

The following is a quick overview of the key steps on how to request access to an application and a role.

1. If you already have a User ID and password, navigate

to https://portal.cms.gov.

2. On the CMS Portal page, select the Login in to CMS Secure Portal link. 3. Accept the Terms and Conditions.

4. Log in with your User ID and password. (You can log in with an IACS User ID and password, if you have one.)

5. On the Welcome to CMS Enterprise Portal page, select the down arrow icon that appears next to your name at the top of page. Then, select My Access from the drop down menu to continue. Alternately, you may select Request Access Now to continue. 6. After the Access Catalog is displayed, select Request Access for the

application you are required to request access.

7. Provide your business contact information, if it is not already on file. (EIDM will prompt you, if this is needed.)

8. Select the role you are registering from the Select a Role drop down menu.

9. Enter and select the appropriate information needed to complete your request for access. (EIDM will prompt you on what is needed.)

(13)

13 How an Approver Locates and Approves a Request

The following is a quick overview of the key steps on how an approver locates and approves a request.

1. After a request has been submitted for approval, an email notification is sent to every approver authorized to review and approve this request.

2. The request is also sent to, and listed on, the My Pending Approvals page for every approver, authorized to review and approve this request.

3. To reach the My Pending Approvals page, navigate

to https://portal.cms.gov.

4. On the CMS Portal page, select the Login in to CMS Secure Portal link. 5. Accept the Terms and Conditions.

6. Log in with your User ID and password. (You can log in with an IACS User ID and password, if you have one.)

After logging in, EIDM will check to see if you are an approver for one or more applications.

7. On the Welcome to CMS Enterprise Portal page, select the down arrow icon that appears next to your name at the top of page. Then, select My Access from the drop down menu to continue. Alternatively, you may select Request Access Now to continue. 8. After the Access Catalog, My Access and My Pending Requests

sections are displayed, select Other Actions in the My Access section. 9. On the View and Manage My Access page, select My Pending

Approvals.

10. The Pending Approvals page is displayed.

11. By default, all of the pending approvals you are authorized to review and approve are listed on your Pending Approvals page. Only

authorized approvers for the application can view and approve submitted requests for the application. You cannot view the pending approvals of other applications, unless you have also been approved to be an authorized approver in those applications. Authorized approvers of other applications cannot view or approve your application’s pending requests.

(14)

12. The “Search Requests” feature may be used to search for and locate specific pending requests. For example, the Search Requests feature may be used to search for pending requests by first name, last name, partial first name, partial last name, request number, date the request was submitted, or even using the “Keywords” search option. The search results will only list pending approvals the approver is authorized to review and approve.

13. Select and view one of the pending requests.

14. After reviewing the information submitted with the request, you can approve, reject, or defer the request. If you approve or reject the request, you will have to provide a justification for the approval or rejection. If you defer the request, no action is taken, and the pending request will remain on the My Pending Approvals page. Pending requests will expire after 60 days unless they are approved or rejected.

15. After a pending request is approved or rejected by an approver, an email notification is sent to the person that submitted the request. The email will include the justification the approver submitted with the approval or rejection.

What you may need before you begin

Prior to requesting access, you should have received instructions from your organization or CMS contact. The instructions should include application specific information you may need to complete the request, such as:

• Social Security Number (SSN) / Tax Identification Number (TIN) • Legal Business Name (LBN) or Organization

• Application Name • Application Role

• Other information specific to your application, for example, Contract Number, Gentran Mailbox, National Provider Identifier (NPI),

Organization number

• You will have to create a User ID and password of your choosing if you do not already have a User ID and password. EIDM allows you to create a User ID up to 74 characters; however, some applications have restrictions on the number of characters, and special characters, you can have in the User ID you create. Check with your CMS point of contact to identify restrictions for your application.

• Not every CMS application requires the same information, so it is important to get the specifics directly from your organization or CMS contact.

How to remove a role

The following are the basic step-by-step instructions on how to remove a

role, when you are required to remove a role, and your application allows you

to remove a role.

Note: If you are a DMEPOS Authorized Official and you have no persons in your organization, you may use the Remove a Role feature to remove your role from the organization. Since you have no persons in your organization, your organization will also be removed, when EIDM completes the remove a role process.

However, if you have persons that have been approved to access your DMEPOS organization, or you have pending requests for access for your organization, you will not be able to remove your Authorized Official role. The reason: The persons in your organization, or applying for access, must have an Authorized Official in the organization.
