CMS has released the agenda for its February 23, 2010 Program Advisory and Oversight Committee (PAOC) meeting. Topics to be covered include: a bidding status update; review of the DBIdS system performance; an accreditation update; supplier and beneficiary educational plans; contract supplier oversight and monitoring; a tentative timeline for Round 2; and a discussion of the subdivision of the NYC, Los Angeles, and Chicago metropolitan statistical areas for bidding purposes. The agency expects to begin registration for the meeting early next week. CMS also posted its first DMEPOS competitive bidding “program preview” document at the “DMEPOS Toolkit” web page. The document reviews the program basics, highlights the “proven results” of the DMEPOS bidding demonstration program, and discusses the agency’s implementation plans. CMS also released a MLN Matters article covering the same materials.
