Comments to CMS regarding Medicare Administrative Contractors contracting process

The Coalition submitted comments to CMS on the Medicare Administrative Contractors (MAC) contracting process, as per CMS’ request for information regarding the “Awarding and the Administration of Medicare Administrative Contractor Contracts (CMS 1653-NC).” The Coalition cites past and present accountability and transparency issues with the MACs/PDAC. The Coalition advocates for the extension of this request for information to the PDAC, instead of just the MACs. The Coalition outlines possible incentive systems for exceptional MAC performance, specific metrics or evaluation criteria to measure the quality of MAC service, and the level of information regarding MAC performance that should be public record.
