I don't think any health plans out there are going to resend their notices based on this new information. The regulations don't say we need it. And it costs a small fortune to send the NPP.

Kelli - That was my thinking.  I figured that HHS published this information due to the lack of available information on filing complaints.  I am also thinking this information is what would be included on your NPP.

Now that the address has been provided to us, do providers have to supply the exact address to patients for complaints?
