Re: Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Innovation (CMMI) Center New Direction Request for Information
Dear Administrator Verma,
We appreciate this opportunity to provide our feedback on the future direction of CMS Innovation Center. We share CMS’ goal of increasing participation in Advanced Alternative Payment Models (APMs) by creating additional opportunities that encourage provider flexibility and choice and reducing burdensome requirements and regulations that draw practice resources away from patient care.
