Provider Reporting

1. Quarterly Zip Code Reports: Pursuant to 202 KAR 6:080 all CMRS providers are required to submit zip code subscriber reports detailing prepaid, postpaid and Lifeline subscriber counts quarterly. To assist with your submission, the 911 Services Board staff developed a template in MS Excel to ensure uniform submission for all CMRS providers. The MS Excel template, titled "Provider Reporting," can be downloaded below.

Please note that the annual report template is formatted in a manner that is conducive with the quarterly zip code reporting mechanism. As such, submitting quarterly zip code reports for 2018 and beyond using the template below will satisfy the annual report requirement.

2. Provider Annual Reports: Pursuant to KRS 65.7630 (4), CMRS providers shall submit to the board "one annual report each calendar year of the total number of active CMRS connections in each zip code within Kentucky served by the provider for each month during the year. The report shall be in the form and manner prescribed by the board and shall be submitted no later than thirty (30) days after the end of each year. Each CMRS provider shall include in its report separate counts of the numbers of active CMRS connections attributable to prepaid customers, postpaid customers, and wireless low-income Lifeline customers served by the CMRS provider for each month." 

The 911 Services Board developed a MS Excel spreadsheet template for CMRS providers to complete their statutorily required annual report:
