White House “Open Government” Pledge Should Apply to CMS and Bidder Information

Obama gives speechAAHomecare is asking the Obama Administration to uphold its pledge to create “an unprecedented level of openness in Government” and to apply that standard to CMS’ handling of the “competitive” bidding program.

One program severely lacking in transparency is the Medicare bidding program for home medical equipment. It is hard to assess whether the massive problems that arose in the 2008 bidding program have been corrected in this round when CMS is providing no details about which companies have been offered contracts following the recent rebidding. AAHomecare is pushing CMS to release the list of companies that received contract offers.
