Joint Comments Submitted – Most Favored Nation (MFN) Model (CMS-5528-IFC)

By America's Blood Centers

AABB, America’s Blood Centers, and the American Red Cross submitted comments in response to Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS) Most Favored Nation (MFN) Model interim final rule with comment (IFC). Our organizations strongly oppose the interim final rule implementing the MFN model because it dramatically changes Medicare payment policies without providing affected stakeholders with the opportunity to provide feedback.
