Email received from : Mark.Sokel@multiplan.com  Sub : Right Step Medical Center LLC - Multiplan network participation contracting - received completed Roster & W9 - submitting contract packet for Approval for processing - Hold Claims Letter attached  Hello Ahmed,     This is to confirm for you that I received your completed Roster and W9.  Thank you.  We had previously received your signed Multiplan network participation contract for Right Step Medical Center LLC.  Given that I have your signed contract, your Roster and your W9, I believe I have a complete contract packet.  I am working on getting it processed but given I just received the Roster and W9, I am a little behind the 10/1/2021 effective date on the contract.   It is now slightly a retro situation.  If you can, try to hold any known Multiplan claims for a couple of weeks to allow us to get the contract processed/executed/loaded.  I have attached above a formal “Please hold claims letter”.    Do the best you can.     Today I am submitting your Multiplan contract packet to our QA Folks for review/Approval for processing.  If they kick it back to me for any reason, I will immediately contact you to work out whatever the issue might be.  (But I am hoping it will sail through QA).  As long as there are no issues with the contract packet, as soon as the contract is executed, a copy of the countersigned contract will be automatically be emailed back to your office.        Mark J.
