I am writing from RTI International as follow up to an email you received from [INSERT CMS PROJECT OFFICER NAME] for your section 1115 substance use disorder (SUD) demonstration on [DATE] regarding the meta-evaluation we are undertaking on behalf of CMS.

As one of several states implementing the SUD demonstration, your participation is important to helping CMS support policy and programmatic development for other demonstration states and future demonstrations.
This interview will be approximately 90 minutes. Below we provide some potential times for calls. Would any of these times be amenable to you? If not, could you provide a few alternative times? If there is another person at your agency who would be more appropriate for this conversation, please let us know who that is and provide us with their contact information.
