responsible reporting entity (RRE)

The responsible reporting entity is the party that is responsible for funding a claim payment to an individual eligible for Medicare benefits and is considered the responsible reporting entity under the provisions of the Medicare, Medicaid, and SCHIP Extension Act (MMSEA) of 2007. The RRE must register with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and report electronically all claims and claim payments related to any workers compensation, general liability, or automobile no-fault claim where the claimant is also entitled to Medicare benefits.
