Management of FISS Logons

Under HIPAA regulation, Highmark Medicare Services is asking that every user of the Fiscal Intermediary Standard System (FISS) have a unique user ID for greater accountability and security. This unique id is not to be used by anyone other than the person it is assigned to. Please remember that if data is mishandled in any way, the provider will be held responsible in accordance with Medicare requirements. Therefore, we ask for your compliance in guaranteeing the utmost security.

Note: If you are a vendor, billing agency, and/or a 3rd party clearinghouse seeking access to FISS, please seek a written authorization letter from the provider you are servicing, granting your agency authorization to access their Medicare Data.
