In the past, 1099s were produced by the Medicaid Provider ID. In 2008, 1099 Tax Forms will be sent out by Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN)/Social Security Number (SSN). The provider will need to re-enroll with a new FEIN to effect a change in how they receive a 1099. 1099s will use the Taxpayer Address for the FEIN on file at the time of 1099 generation and will include monies for all Provider IDs associated with an FEIN at that time, even if they weren’t linked to that FEIN for the entire year or the Taxpayer Identification or Address has changed during the year. 1099s will now be summed at the FEIN/SSN level to determine if the 1099 is greater than $600. If the total is less than $600, no 1099 will be sent out for that FEIN/SSN.
