Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) Resources

Medicare Part B Services

Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) regionally manage policy and payment related to reimbursement and act as the fiscal intermediary for Medicare. MACs manage provider claims for payment and establish regional policy guidelines, called Local Coverage Determinations (LCDs). THe MACs are the primary resource for audiologists and speech-language pathologists providing and billing for services to Medicare beneficiaries. The table below includes the following information for each of the Medicare Part B MACs:

  • Link to the MAC website for Part B (outpatient) services, by state
  • How to check patient eligibility and therapy dollars towards the Medicare therapy cap
  • Where to access the Medicare Fee Schedule
  • Where to access Part B LCDs

Note: These resources are compiled annually. Providers should refer to their local MAC [PDF] for the most current information.
