CMS has posted tip sheets and other resources to help increase awareness of the new policies among stakeholders. Three sets of outreach materials designed for physician, pharmacist, and beneficiary audiences are available on the CMS website for download. Health plans and other stakeholders can also use content from these documents to develop proper messaging for their own outreach materials. Tip Sheets are also available with the goal of dispelling myths and misconceptions. All of these materials can be found here.
