In going through my emails this morning, I had 4 emails from clients asking why they have not received their stimulus money. I know it was set to come in waves but due to a lack of real good explanations from HHS, I am only able to speculate on why some of you have not received it yet if you billed Medicare in 2019. I was able to reach out to my colleagues at NSCHBC and was told that another provider failed to get his Stimulus Money and wanted an explanation so he called this number: 866-569-3522. They requested his EIN and were able to provide him information. I hope this is helpful for those of you wanting to know where your piece of the pie is.
I’ve also been doing some early morning reading on the stimulus money and other funding. I came across this article in the link below. Solid information and really nicely done to break down all the various aspects of the different money out there. Remember, there may be some differences between this article and the PPP FAQ. Hope you find it valuable.
