NPP type size?

[Beth Cole]

I've seen several references on various mailing lists to something said 
at one of the OCR regional conferences regarding the mandated font size 
of the NPP.   What I'm seeing indicates that attendees at the conference 
were told that in order to comply with other Medicare regulations, the 
type size had to be no less than 12 point.

If we take it to 12 point, our NPP is at 8 pages.  If we put it at 
either 9 or 10 point, it's a 4.  So, this is slightly worrisome to us.

Can anyone give me a black-letter law or regulation citation on this, or 
was this someone talking at a conference who didn't know what he was 
talking about?

Thanks!

Beth
