RE: Opposition to Implementation of the WISeR Model in Medicare Fee-for-Service Dear

Dr. Oz and Mr. Sutton:

On behalf of the Regulatory Relief Coalition (RRC), we write to express our strong concerns about the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS) implementation of the Wasteful and Inappropriate Service Reduction (WISeR) Model in the Medicare Fee-for-Service (FFS) program.

Our recent activities focus on ensuring that utilization review policies are not a barrier to timely and necessary access to care for the patients we serve.
