The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is the federal agency that administers the

health care received under the Medicare program. We mailed you a survey about a specific

months. Since we have not heard back from you, we are following up with another copy.
CMS has selected you at random to receive this survey invitation. We hope you will take this
opportunity to tell CMS about the quality of care you receive by filling out the survey. It should
take about 13 minutes to complete. The accuracy of the results depends on getting answers
from you and other people with Medicare selected for this survey.
The information you provide in the survey will be kept private by law. Your information will not
be shared with anyone other than personnel authorized by CMS. We will not share your
completed survey with any of your health care providers. You do not have to participate in
this survey. Your help is voluntary, and your Medicare benefits will not be affected by
any decision you make about the survey.
If you have any questions about the survey, please call us toll-free at [VENDOR NUMBER],
