In November, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) announced a Proposed Rule that would expand coverage for obesity medications under Medicare and Medicaid. There is a 60-day public comment period that allows individuals to submit feedback on the Proposed Rule.
Why YOU should submit a Public Comment:
- Public comments play a crucial role in shaping policy by making voices heard and contributing to meaningful change. OAC advocacy efforts have been instrumental in reaching this significant milestone.
- Your voice can help ensure access to obesity care for millions of Americans.
- Medicare and Medicaid coverage policy sets the standard for other insurers, both private and public.
Submit comments on the Proposed Rule by January 27th at 5 PM.
