the categories of information she was collecting, we identified some questions that her research yields may likely provide (partial) answers, especially the questions that may require Providers to review URS Determinations. Our assumption is that Complaints,
Responses, and party submissions may not be included in Rebecca’s research. </span>

follow up with Rebecca on sharing the data. Welcome your feedback/input on the approach. </span><u></u><u></u></span></p>
