The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is seeking public input to increase flexibility and efficiency in the regulatory structure of the individual and small group marketplaces established under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
The request for information (RFI) notes that CMS aims to identify and eliminate or change regulations that are outdated, costly, or create inconsistencies.
The administration hopes that the regulatory changes will enhance consumer affordability and state flexibility.
The RFI will be published in the Federal Register and public input will be accepted through July 12.
