Dear Administrator Brooks-LaSure:
The undersigned members of the Regulatory Relief Coalition (RRC), representing physicians throughout the country, are pleased to have the opportunity to comment on the OPPS Proposed Rule. The RRC is a group of national physician specialty organizations advocating for regulatory burden reduction in Medicare so physicians can spend more time treating patients. Our aim is to ensure that prior authorization (PA) is not a barrier to timely access to care for the patients we serve.
