This is the process for any physical therapist, occupational therapist, or speech language pathologist changing practice locations within the same MAC territory.

If you enrolled as a co-owner of a group then everything will be done through your business account.
Step 4:
Scroll down to see your existing enrollments. You will click on “more options.”
Step 5:
Choose “Perform a change of information to current enrollment information.”
Step 6:
Choose “Option 2”
Step 7:
Choose “Yes, I need to make other updates to my enrollment”
Step 8:
Click “Start Application”
Scroll down to the practice location and special payments section and update your location information. Also, update any other information applicable.
If you are leasing a new space upload a new copy of your lease before submitting the enrollment.
Once all of your updates are complete click Begin Submission.
