The CMS Homebound with F2F statement is the default physician certification statement. Users can edit or delete this statement as needed. To delete the statement, add a new default statement first.


Add a Certification Statement

Click Save & Close to save the statement or Save & Add Another to continue adding statements to your list.


A maximum of three physician certification statements can be added.


Edit a Certification Statement


Once added, statements can be edited at any time. When an agency has more than one physician certification statement, users can adjust their default statement and delete any statements (that are not the selected default) as needed.


To edit a statement, select Edit under Actions. Select Delete to remove a statement from the list or Make Default to make a statement your agency’s default physician certification statement.
