The application aims to support internal stakeholders (model teams, assessment teams, leadership, etc.), other components (Center for Medicare - CM, Office of the Actuary - OACT, Office of Enterprise Data and Analytics - OEDA, Office of Financial Management - OFM, Office of Information Technology - OIT) and Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) as they participate throughout the intake and review of new model plans. The goal of the application is to allow these different personas and groups to collaborate throughout the creation phase of new model plans. The system will improve this process by providing help and guidance as well as clear next steps for each group and providing a more transparent, efficient, integrated and unified experience for all parties involved. The system will collect, store or share information about models and CMMI programs. It will not collect, store or share PII |
