 75.  Care Plan Oversight         CHAR   6
      (CPO) Provider Number
  
 Effective with NCH weekly process date 3/7/97,
 the Medicare provider number of the HHA or Hospice
 rendering Medicare covered services during
 period the physician is providing care plan
 oversight. The purpose of this field is to
 ensure compliance with the CPO requirement that
 the beneficiary must be receiving covered HHA or
 Hospice services during the billing period.  There
 can be only one CPO provider number per claim, and
 no other services but CPO physician services are
 to be reported on the claim.  This field is only
 present on the non-DMERC processed carrier claim.
  
 NOTE:  On the Version G format, this field is stored
 as a redefinition of the NEAR_LINE_ORGNL_BENE_CAN_NUM
 (the first 3 positions contain 'CPO', followed by
 the 6-position provider number).  During the
 Version H conversion the data was moved to this
 dedicated field.
