RE: Request for Information; National Directory of Healthcare Providers & Services
Dear Administrator Brooks-LaSure,
The Alliance of Specialty Medicine (the “Alliance”) represents more than 100,000 specialty physicians across 15 specialty and subspecialty societies. The Alliance is deeply committed to improving access to specialty medical care by advancing sound health policy. On behalf of the undersigned members, we write in response to CMS’s Request for Information (RFI) soliciting public comments on establishing a National Directory of Healthcare Providers & Services (NDH) that could serve as a “centralized data hub” for healthcare provider, facility, and entity directory and digital contact information nationwide.
