Federal Register Notice on Solicitation for Applications for Medicare Prescription Drug Plan 2015 Contracts
CMS received one comments on the June 28, 2013 notice on the Solicitation for Applications for Medicare Prescription Drug Plan 2015 Contracts. The commenter was a Part D sponsor.
Comment
on Requirement that the Application Contact be the CEO, Chief
Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, or Medicare Compliance
Officer
The commenter disagreed with the proposed requirement because it would place an unnecessary layer for CMS communications to the actual Part D Application subject matter expert. The commenter requested that Part D change the requirement to match the language used in the Part C application: “Please note that it is CMS’ expectation that the MA and Part D Application Contact be a direct employee of the applicant.”
CMS Response
CMS agrees with the commenter and the Part D application’s language has been altered accordingly.
