We intend to consider information received in response to this RFI to assist in future rulemaking. | 2018-12-20 | 2018 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2018/12/20/2018-27506/medicare-program-accrediting-organizations-conflict-of-interest-and-consulting-services-request-for | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2018-12-20/pdf/2018-27506.pdf | Health and Human Services Department; Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services | 221,45 | This request for information (RFI) seeks public comment regarding the appropriateness of the practices of some Medicare- approved Accrediting Organizations (AOs) to provide fee-based consultative services for Medicare-participating providers and... |
