J4 WPS Transition News

TrailBlazer has created a dedicated J4 WPS Legacy Transition Web site to ensure providers receive the latest information, important updates and answers to Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) throughout this Part A workload transition. This site will be updated with pertinent J4 WPS Legacy transition information as soon as it becomes available.

Education Opportunities Now Available! Register from the Calendar of Events Web page.

Important: We encourage all providers and stakeholders to register now for J4 WPS Transition News listserv by clicking "LISTSERV" from the top navigation and following the instructions.

Providers are encouraged to bookmark this page for easy access to all J4 WPS transition-related information and responses to FAQs regarding the transition. After the workload and affected providers are transitioned, this temporary site will be discontinued. At that time, providers will be notified to refer to the current J4 MAC Web site (http://www.trailblazerhealth.com/Medicare.aspx) for all their Medicare-related information and resources.
