Will each location included in a bid be required to meet all applicable licensure requirements for every geographic area included in the nationwide remote item delivery (RID) competitive bidding area (CBA)? For example, many large suppliers service beneficiaries in different regions from different locations. Please confirm each location should only be required to meet all applicable state licensing requirements for the states the particular location services, as long as the bidding entity includes a sufficient number of locations on its bid that will cumulatively service all geographic areas in the RID CBA.
All locations included in a bid must together meet the applicable state and local licensing requirements for the areas where beneficiaries will be served. If a state requires a specific license, at least one location included on the bid must hold that license, but no more than one location is required to satisfy that requirement.
