Summary: The American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus (AAPOS) supports the proposed action provided it preserves and strengthens access to pediatric eye care. They urge CMS to ensure adequate reimbursement rates for pediatric ophthalmologists, strengthen network adequacy standards, and recognize early childhood vision care as a high-value investment to improve long-term health outcomes.
