What is CMS?
CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) is the U.S. federal agency that runs Medicare, works with states on Medicaid and CHIP, and oversees parts of the health insurance marketplace. Its rules and payment policies affect providers, payers and suppliers across the healthcare market.
What counts as a healthcare regulator?
Regulators are government agencies and other official bodies that create, oversee and enforce rules for the healthcare industry. They can work at the federal or state level and cover areas such as payment, licensing, safety, quality and compliance.
Why would a business research CMS and regulatory organizations?
Teams that sell to government, consult on compliance, or track policy use this data to understand the organizations involved, their size, the technology they use, and the topics they are focused on. It can also help you map the executives in relevant departments.
What is the CMS Fee Structure section?
It shows an organization's CMS fees for the current year and the previous year, and how they changed. Fee schedules cover a single determination, a batch of 2 to 25 items, and an additional tiered fee for each further group of 25 items.
What is the difference between single, batched and tiered fees?
A single determination fee applies to one decision. A batched fee applies when you submit between 2 and 25 items together as one request. A tiered fee is charged for each additional group of 25 items when a request has more than 25.
Can I find regulators by the technology they use?
Yes. The Technographics section lets you enter technology keywords to find organizations where those technologies have been detected. Detected technology may not be a complete inventory.
What do intent signals show for regulatory organizations?
They show topics an organization has been researching, such as compliance, regulations or healthcare policy. They indicate areas of focus, not a confirmed procurement or decision.
Can I search by an organization's official name?
Yes. Search by Legal Business Name or website, and filter by city, state, ZIP code, radius and employee range. You can also use the Identifier section to find an organization by its Intent.Health Organization ID.
