Partners,

As we head into a long weekend, we wanted to draw your attention to several opportunities to comment on important proposed rules, including some deadlines in the next couple of days. These opportunities include:
* Commenting on the proposed Medicare Physician Fee Schedule to promote the inclusion of “medically necessary” dental coverage in Medicare by submitting comments using this comment template ([link removed]) . Comments due TUESDAY Sept 6 at 5pm ET.
* Joining the Consumers First coalition and sign on to two comments on critical payment and delivery reforms in the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS) ([link removed]) (due TOMORROW Sept 2 at 5pm ET) and Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) ([link removed]) (due COB September 12). Even if you are submitting your own comments, we hope you will consider signing on to these group ones as well.
* Staying tuned for more information as we will a continue to be in touch soon about comments related to the 1557 proposed rule (comments due Oct 6th) and the new Medicaid/CHIP enrollment proposed rule (comments likely due Nov 7th).


Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to share additional resources .

Best,
Melissa
