You should immediately send out a new Form 1096 Misc but, this time include all the previously filed 1099-Misc form along with the corrected 1099-Misc forms (you should want to check mark the box "amended").

Also, you might want to indicate "AMENDED" on the top of Form 1096, just so that the IRS knows that the form has been amended.

This is not a problem and the IRS will not fine you any penalties or assess any interest on this error.
