Does anyone know if the federal legislation has been changed such that digitally signed and delivered referral letters are adequate to satisfy Medicare requirements?

Tony,

This document has been posted on the HIC and now MediScare web sites for many years, more than four years to my personal knowledge.

It says signing by individual PKI keys is appropriate.It doesn't mention Encryption, but encryption is covered in much detail in things like PIP, BFH requirements and Accreditation.

HTH
