Availability of Education Handouts
https://www.novitas-solutions.com/training/index.html
Currently, education handouts are purged from the Novitas Internet website after 30-days from the date of the presentation. Providers asked that these handouts be available for a longer period of time. We heard your request and have extended this timeframe to 6 months from the date of presentation effective with presentations hosted 06/10/2013 and going forward. The handouts will continue to be available from the same location they are available from now.

Providers are encouraged to locate handouts by taking these steps:
  • Utilize this link. 
  • Select appropriate event type (will include handouts if any were used): 
  • Webinars
  • Teleconferences 
  • Scroll to bottom of screen to the ‘Previous’ section
  • Look for the presentation/date that was missed
  • Retrieve handouts
