  1. 01

    How would deactivating health identifiers for excluded providers affect patients who are currently receiving care from those providers?

  2. 02

    What specific mechanisms would CMS use to identify and verify provider exclusions before deactivating identifiers, and what safeguards prevent errors?

  3. 03

    Should the bill specify funding for CMS to implement these deactivations, or is relying on existing agency processes sufficient to handle the administrative burden?
