Comment on CMS-2026-2047-0002

Summary: Genesis Treatment Services, LLC, a licensed Opioid Treatment Program, opposes the Interim Final Rule because it creates a disparity by excluding for-profit providers from certain statutory exclusions, potentially reducing access to life-saving treatment. They request that CMS clarify that all federally certified and state-licensed programs qualify for these exclusions regardless of tax status and advocate for clinician-led determinations of medical frailty.
