As two-digit state codes used for the CMS Certification Number (CCN) (field called the PRVDR_NUM) have been exhausted, CMS implemented a two-position alpha-numeric coding system for State Codes. When this occurs, CMS mapped the alphanumeric codes to these SSA state codes. For example, even though Florida CCNs include the first 2-digits (state codes) 10, 68, 69, and A2, all will have PRVDR_STATE_CD = 10. NOTE: Effective July 26, 2024, the following CCN assigned state codes are being added to the derivation rules for the provider state code (D6, D7, D8, D9, E1, E2, E3). If these states codes were received prior to July 26, 2024, they are not mapped to the provider state.
