In June 2025, the Center responded to an RFI from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) on modernizing the digital health ecosystem for Medicare beneficiaries. In our RFI response, we outlined steps CMS can take to promote the use of high-value health technology and improve data transparency, including:
- Leveraging results from independent assessments from the Peterson Health Technology Institute—a program of the Peterson Center on healthcare—to ensure digital health tools with demonstrated clinical and economic value can reach Traditional Medicare beneficiaries.
- Aligning remote monitoring with clinical value by developing evidence-based, condition-specific remote monitoring duration limits for Traditional Medicare beneficiaries.
- Developing value-based payment pathways for digital tools.
- Improving price transparency and data usability.
This RFI represents an important step toward accelerating the adoption of the most effective, evidence-backed digital health technologies that improve patient’s lives, enhance their care experiences, and reduce costs.
