Guide for Completing the Newest HHS CARES Provider Relief Fund Application
So for the HHS (Health and Human Services/CARES ACT) money that podiatrists received they will need to go and register on a specific site and then more financial reporting will be requested when that portal is open.
Below is the link to the site that Podiatrists need to go to now.
If you have not already, go to this site and register.
You will need the following in front of you when you start:
- Tax ID Number (TIN) (or other number submitted during the application process (e.g., Social Security Number, Employer Identification Number (EIN))
- Business name (as it appears on a W-9) of the reporting entity
- Contact information (name, phone number, email) of the person responsible for submitting the report
- Address (street, city, state, five digit zip code) of the reporting entity as it appears on a W-9)
- TIN(s) of subsidiaries (if a provider is reporting on behalf of subsidiary(ies) - in a list delimited by commas, e.g.,123456789,987654321,135791357)
- Payment information (for any of the payments received)
- TIN of entity that received the payment
- Payment amount
But the stuff you may not have at your fingertips are:
- TIN
