Chair Gutiérrez asks about providers rescinding contracts
Gutiérrez asks if any providers rescinded contracts. Liss says some initially expressed interest but decided not to participate due to the short turnaround, and they hope to work with them in the future.
Thank you.
Back on the provider designation, were there any providers that were initially offered a contract or, you know, an
Except in the process and for whatever reason just rescinded?
Or is every single provider kind of in that first round currently contracted?
There are some providers who initially expressed interest in 2K and then subsequently decided not to participate, often because of their own planning for the year and whether they had changed their minds, essentially, about whether offering 2K was the right thing for them this year.
I will acknowledge it was a really short turnaround time, given that we announced 2K in January, began working with providers in the spring.
And so for some providers, that was just too quickly, too quick a turnaround time to be able to be ready to offer 2K this fall.
And we hope to come back to many of those folks in the future.
Thank you.
