The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will host an open door forum to, among other things, allow providers of durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies (DMEPOS) to learn about prior authorization initiatives recently announced by CMS. The conference call will be held from 2-3 p.m. ET on Tuesday, June 17.
To join the call, participants should dial 800.837.1935, and use conference ID # 41801913. Participants will not be able to ask questions during the call but may submit questions prior to the forum at medicaremedicalreview@cms.hhs.gov. A transcript and audio recording of the call will be posted to the open door forum section of the CMS website.
