Thanks for posting. We are keeping after them. CMS acknowledged receiving our FOIA request and said it receives quite a few of them so we are on a first-in, first-out basis. We continue to monitor their website with the Control # they gave us and here is what it says today:

FOIA request referred to program office(s) for responsive records search, fee estimate, and direct reply to requester

Projected Date of Response:
Undetermined

Date of Response:
Not available at this time

We will keep after them because, like you, we want to know who pushed CMS into this.

Thanks again,

Mike Kearney
Spokesperson for CareToLive, a not for profit corporation

Please pursue your efforts in find out out who pushed CMS to look into this. I believe that knowing who made the request will shed much to their real motivation. Good luck and keep us posted.

Thank you,
Bill
