Identity and Access Management System, or I and A, allows you to add a group and provider before starting Medicare enrollment. Users will act on behalf of the organizations and providers as their surrogates. You can request to be the group's authorized official, access manager, or staff end user. As an approved surrogate to the organization and the provider, you will have access to view and modify information within the CMS system on their behalf, like their NPI registry and Medicare enrollment. You can use one user ID to log on for PECOS, NPPES, or I and A.
You can request four roles: Authorized Official, Access Manager, Staff End User, and Surrogate. Anyone listed as an authorized official in the I and A system will not automatically populate into the Medicare enrollment application. Access Manager can add staff end users. Staff End users cannot add providers to the group.
When you request a role, remember that the staff end-user has a limited function. If the Authorized Official or the Access Manager is unavailable, the SEU cannot add new providers to the organization or the group. You can have multiple Authorized Officials or Access Managers as a back-up. The Authorized official or Access Manager could be a direct employee of the organization.
