Newstimes.com names Fred Hersch & Julain Lage's 'Free Flying' in their article, "Review: A look at some overlooked albums of 2013": 'This exquisite chamber jazz album matches rising guitar star Julian Lage and innovative veteran pianist Fred Hersch in a series of acrobatic duets recorded live in the intimate setting of New York's Jazz at Kitano club. Lage has the virtuoso technique and deep knowledge of jazz history to keep pace with jazz masters like Hersch and Gary Burton, appearing on the vibraphonist's Grammy-nominated jazz instrumental album, "Guided Tour." Hersch is a Grammy nominee for improvised jazz solo for "Free Flying's" opening track, "Song Without Words #4: Duet," which has a Bach-inspired classical feel with complex contrapuntal playing mixed with jazz improvisation. Most of the nine ions are Hersch compositions, including "Down Home," which playfully draws from folk, blues, gospel and early jazz styles such as stride piano, and the title track on which the duo draw on Latin-flavored rhythms as they play intertwining rapid-fire lines. There are only two covers, including the closing "Monk's Dream" on which the two pay tribute to Thelonious Monk's percussive playing, dissonant harmonies and quirky angular melodies. — Charles J. Gans, AP Writer (twitter.com/chjgans)' Purchase "Free Flying" on Amazon.com! |

By MARY WISNIEWSKI
Transportation Reporter
Chicago Sun-Times
April 14, 2008
Uniforms belonging to U.S. Transportation Security Administration
officers were left out in the open at an O'Hare Airport checkpoint last
month, as were sensitive security information and a cashbox.
While the TSA said the items were in the area past security checkpoints
and that no security was breached, an aviation security expert said it's
a "serious" situation because uniforms could be stolen and used by
people trying to get through security without being checked. Unsecured
items were found at six O'Hare checkpoints.
"Regulations require them to keep [uniforms] secured," said Mary
Schiavo, a former inspector general of the U.S. Department of
Transportation who sued the airlines over 9/11.
Since 2002, the TSA has been charged with guarding against terrorist
attacks by screening people for weapons and explosives before they get
on airline-operated planes.
Schiavo said stolen TSA uniforms present a problem because at some
locations, TSA employees are waved through without having to show
A Chicago Department of Aviation report dated March 14 at 1:38 a.m.,
which was obtained by the Chicago Sun-Times, also reported two TSA
radios with access to a secure channel were found unsecured at
Checkpoint 8, as were unlocked break room doors at checkpoints 8 and 9.
The officer filling out the report was told the Checkpoint 9 door had
been broken for "a while."
TSA spokesman Elio Montenegro confirmed that the report was genuine. He
said all of the items described were "within the sterile area,"
referring to the area passengers enter after the checkpoints. He could
not say exactly where the various items were found.
Schiavo said it was "ridiculous" to think it's safe to leave uniforms
unsecured if they're past the checkpoints. "If they took the uniform out
of the sterile area, they could use it on another day," Schiavo said.
Montenegro said a person could not pass a checkpoint wearing just a TSA
uniform. He or she would have to have a valid Secure Identification
Display Area badge, he said.
He added that even if there had been a misplaced uniform, "it seems that
immediate action was taken to remove the items."
Montenegro said the TSA works closely with local law enforcement,
including the Department of Aviation and the Chicago Police Department.
"When something is brought to our attention that needs improvement, we
engage in discussion with them and take steps to improve security
procedures," Montenegro said.
Cathal Flynn, a consultant and former associate administrator for civil
aviation security, said he didn't see unsecured uniforms as a "serious
vulnerability," though it's a "real nuisance having your uniform
stolen." He said he doesn't think TSA officers get waved through
But Flynn agreed that the incident needed to be investigated. "People
need to lock the doors," he said.
Unsecured items found at Checkpoint 1 included three lockers and two
mini-lockers, seven TSA maroon sweaters and one blue uniform shirt, five
TSA jackets and one pair of blue uniform pants, according to the report.
The report said the items were placed in a garbage bag by a TSA manager,
presumably after their presence was pointed out by a city aviation
The report said the uniforms at Checkpoint 1 were "in plain view."
Unsecured uniforms were also found at checkpoints 2 and 9.
"Sensitive security information" materials, documents and blotter
reports were found unsecured at Checkpoint 3. Also cited for unsecured
items were checkpoints 4a, where a cashbox was found, and 2.
The Chicago Department of Aviation declined to comment on the matter
because it's "sensitive security information," said spokeswoman Karen
A 2006 Channel 5 report found that over five years, TSA employees lost
3,674 badges and uniforms nationwide. TSA employees at O'Hare lost the
most ID badges, 189, along with 188 uniforms.

"This is my favorite blackberry Cobbler recipe, but I modify it as following:
I make the topping, keep it in the freezer and only put about 1/4 of it over the top. I sprinkle it on and eyeball it.
I also use frozen berries that I picked last summer. I mix about 2 Tablespoons of cornstarch in to the sugar ..."
"What a HIT! I have made this several times and it is always the hit of the party. The salmon comes out moist. I usually use a full salmon filet which I purchase at Costco. I have cooked it by shortening the fillet (cut it off) and by folding it under, both ways seem to work. We cook it for 20 min, then test it."
"This is a great recipe, we have made it several times. It has become a standard at our house. Thanks so much for sharing."
"This was GREAT! I served it to my husband in tortilla shells as burritos. He Loved it. We will be making this again."
"These are excellent. They have great flavor and texture. Thank You for sharing."
"These are very good. I did substitute the cheese with Montery Jack."

Need help.
So after knocking down a wall, reframing it, and then putting drywall up I have found out that my joints did not match. This is my first time at this, and mudding is an art form and I am not good. So now I have a dip from the old plaster to the new dry wall of about 1/4 inch. WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO MAKE THIS WHOLE SECTION SMOOTH. Do I have to keep on back filling till one side is as high as the other? My mud was too thick before and I was going to thin it out to get the consistency of pudding I am told. TO FIX THIS DEPRESSION IS IT BETTER TO HAVE THICK OR THIN MUD? thanks jack
Follow-Up Postings:
Use setting type joint compound (Easysand) and mix it about as thick as peanut butter. Pre-mix mud hardens by drying and has significant shrinkage. Setting compounds harden by chemical reaction, and if mixed thick will have minimal shrinkage even if applied in thick layers. |
"Use setting type joint compound (Easysand)" Is there a brand I should look for? Or anything I should look for to know that I have the right stuff. So if I understand correctly, I should fill the "dip " with "setting type joint compound" because it will not shrink. Then go over it all with a thin coat of pre-mix. What is the dry time of the "setting type joint compound" sorry for my ignorance. I'm learning. jack |
Easysand is one brand of setting compound. It is available in a number of set times, indicated on the bag by the umber following the name. Easysand20, Easysand45, etc. The number is the approximate setting time in minutes, but like any plaster product is is only a rough guide. GO for the largest number you can find (often 90, but longer is made). You can top with premix or more setting compound. |

setting type drywall compound comes in bags pictured in the link below. Home depot sells a 210 min working time type. remember to completly remove all residue of setting type compound from your tools,bucket etc... when finished, As the residue will cause the next batch to harden very quickly when you mix it up. |
Here is a link that might be useful: setting type compound
WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO MAKE THIS WHOLE SECTION SMOOTH. Get 3 taping knives, 4", 8" and 12". First time use 4", 2nd use 8" and last use 12", knock off hard pieces in between and sand the last one lightly. You'll never find that 1/4" spreading it out 12". |
- Posted by drywall_diy_guy (My Page) on Wed, Aug 8, 07 at 8:20
If you have not taped and mudded yet, the best way to remedy this is to remove your sheet at the joint (assuming screws were used) and attach shimming material at the joint to make the surfaces level. Also place about 1/2 the shimming material one stud back from the joint so as to make the curve gradual and not noticeable. Then tape and mud as usual. Go to the site below for tips on finishing the taped joints. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Drywall Taping Tutorial
Has anyone ever had trouble getting their easysand to set up? Sunday afternoon I used some to skimcoat over some plaster repair and it never set up, just became crumbly. I followed all directions to the T. Thanx for any help, Bill W. |

Dr. Jill Biden Visits Columbia Military Veterans
Dr. Jill Biden today met with student military veterans at Columbia University in New York to learn more about their programs that serve veterans and military families. Dr. Biden announced earlier this week that she would be visiting campus programs that support veterans and military families as part of Joining Forces, the initiative she started with First Lady Michelle Obama to encourage all Americans to find ways to support and honor military families.
Columbia has distinguished itself as a military-friendly university, with more than 550 veterans currently enrolled in its undergraduate, graduate and professional schools. Some 300 of those are earning their Bachelor's degrees, following their military service, at Columbia's School of General Studies, which was founded after World War II largely to accommodate the unique needs of veterans and other students returning to college after varied lives and careers. Columbia has continued to actively recruit and welcome Iraq and Afghanistan-era veterans as essential members of its diverse university community.
Brown Institute for Media Innovation Grand Opening |
Five Columbia faculty members have been inducted into the National Academy of Sciences' Institute of Medicine. They are James J. Cimino, adjunct professor in the Department of Biomedical Informatics; Quarraisha Abdool Karim, associate professor of epidemiology; Gerard Karsenty, Paul A. Marks Professor of Genetics & Development; Michael Shadlen, professor of neuroscience; and Gordana Vunjak-Novakovic, Mikati Foundation Professor of Biomedical Engineering.

The baritone lowing of immovably peaceful bovines can be heard on Patience Hill Ranch, which surrounds Golden Light Healing. Channeling techniques learned from Peruvian shamans and serenity gleaned from the steppes of Machu Picchu, Amy and David Wilinski bestow their own sense of relaxation on all who visit them. In addition to reiki treatments, the duo also works to cleanse their clients' energy fields with mystical healing techniques.

Samantha Sargent, the experienced, licensed massage therapist at Synergistic Health, soothes sore muscles and relaxes away cares with custom massages. Each muscle-melting session kicks off with an initial consultation to evaluate desired outcomes and unearth medical history, allowing the therapist to create a personalized massage or ghostwrite the memoirs of back muscles. Soft, ambient music plays as Samantha's expert hands attack aches and pains with techniques from many traditions, including medical and sports massage, acupressure, tui na, and Thai massage. For some types of massage, the therapist smoothes light oil over skin to ease friction and help build empathy for salad greens. Before or after their massage, guests can sip tea amid the tranquil reception area's gentle orange walls and soft lighting. Synergistic Health bolsters freshly de-stressed bodies with its own line of organic, handmade beauty products. The lotions and balms eschew parabens in favor of all-natural ingredients, such as coconut oil, beeswax, and fresh-squeezed sun rays. Each potion is designed to exfoliate and pamper skin, outfitting faces, lips, and cuticles with younger-looking appearances.
Together, the skincare specialists at Elite Aesthetics & Micro-Spa represent more than 30 years of experience in the health-and-wellness industry. The spa's massage therapists immerse themselves in the study and practice of various modalities, combining knowledge of human anatomy and the game of Operation with training in Swedish, deep-tissue, reflexology, and shiatsu massage. Aestheticians begin each skincare treatment by evaluating and classifying the client's skin type according to its properties to customize facials, chemical peels, and microdermabrasion treatments. Along with massage and skincare services, the spa's beauty professionals wax bodies, apply eyelash extensions, and prepare clients for wedding days with bridal makeup.

After vacationing in France in the early 1970s, retired physicist Carl Sontheimer was inspired to go back to work. He?d seen a new gadget?a mechanized food processor for restaurants?and wanted to retool it for passionate home cooks like himself. His machine was efficient and versatile: mixing eggs into puff pastry took 15 minutes for a human, 10 minutes for a trained chimpanzee, but just 15 seconds in the food processor. Immediately, revered chefs including Julia Child, Jacques P?pin, and James Beard applauded the invention, and Beard even wrote an entire cookbook dedicated to the machine. Decades later, Cuisinart?s line of innovative products ranges from waffle makers and rice cookers to eco-friendly nonstick pans.
With 12 years of experience in martial arts, Daniel Strelka knows his way around a confrontation. Believing that bodies fight themselves when they are stressed, Daniel employs different massage styles to ease stress and help the body heal itself, not unlike cartoon hero Wolverine and real hero Four-Armed Doctor Man. He has patients lie down for 30 or 60 minutes of massage services as he eases sinews by employing strokes of the Swedish and relaxation modalities. Daniel's health center also burrows down deeper into the body through acupressure and cranial-sacral massage, and he offers reiki and guided meditation to quiet surging storms in the cerebral cortex.

Just 2% of Canadians Deny Climate Change Occurring, Poll Finds
Just 2% of Canadians Deny Climate Change Occurring, Poll Finds
Originally published on EnergyBoom.com
A recent survey conducted by Insightrix Research, Inc. has found that only 2% of Canadians believe climate change is not taking place.
The online poll, commissioned by IPAC CO2 Research Inc., a Saskatchewan-based center studying carbon capture and storage, asked respondents where they stood on the issue of climate change.
32% of participants said they believe climate change is occurring as a result of human activity, and 54% said they believe climate change is happening because of a combination of human activity and natural variation. Meanwhile, 9% believe climate change is the result of the natural climate cycle. Far in the minority were respondents (2%) that believed climate change is a hoax.
Conversely, in the United States climate denial represents a much larger chunk of the population, as a recent survey shows. 15% of Americans believe climate change is not occurring.
Much like the United States, Canadians' opinions on climate change vary depending on the region. The Insightrix survey found that residents in the Prairies (Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba) are least likely to believe humans are changing the climate, while those living in the Maritimes, Quebec, and British Columbia are most likely to hold the belief.
Almost half (44%) of respondents in Quebec believe anthropogenic climate change is happening, while only 21% of participants in Alberta and Saskatchewan hold the same belief.
This regional divide also exists in regard to fossil fuel consumption. 66% of Albertan respondents believe fossil fuels will be used for electricity production in 2050, while only 37% of Quebecers held the same belief. Across the country, 51% of Canadians believe fossil fuels will still be used for electricity in 2050.
Carmen Dybwad, CEO of IPAC CO2 Research, said: "Our survey indicates Canadians from coast to coast overwhelmingly believe climate change is real and is occurring, at least in part due to human activity."

Previous Comments
I having been cruising the blogs for months and it appears to me that public opinion (at least as it manifests itself online) is dominated by the following "convictions":
– Climate scientists are faking the science to get grant money.
– Climate scientists gave up talking about "global warming" when this was shown to be nonsense, and have accordingly changed to topic to "climate change".
– If there is global warming, it is caused by sunspots, or the eleven year solar cycle, or a gradually increasing amount of thermal radiation emitted by the sun in recent decades.
– If there is global warming, it is something we can easily adapt to – even benefit from. Imagine orange groves in North Daota!
– Carbon dioxide is essential for life, so the more of it the better.
– The climate is always changing, so any changes that we see now are nothing to be alarmed about.
– It's all caused by cycles of nature. No need to inquire into their causes; they are spontaneous, autonomous, uncaused things that just happen.oot
The Heartland Institute and other like minded organizations have planted these "ideas" in the public mind where it will be hard to dislodge them. We will be able to root them out only by replacing them with catch phrases that are equally simple and memorable – but true.
For example, we might counter that "Water is essential for life, but it is also possible to drown in it." Counter arguments at a higher level than that just aren't sticking.
For a really funny laugh you have to verify the qualifications of their 'scientists'.
Anthony Watts… high school! Truly a leader for the inept, uneducated and incompetent.
On the technical side, if you can't read all the scientific papers, Skeptical Science does an excellent job;

Oana Farcas
In the Womb of Light
9 January – 14 February 2015
There are two Eastern European languages that create their word for "world" out of their word for "light", or a version of it – Romanian (lume) and Hungarian (világ). This foundational logical-poetical gesture goes against the grain of the entire Western thinking, which, since Plato, imprisons us in a cave of ignorance ("darkness") only to promise us a (logical, un-real) Sun (of knowledge). Today, of course, nothing of this initial battle for the right words is preserved. The world is equally a world of light and darkness. This is what our eyes see, this is what our mouth utters. Light has become a most banal phenomenon. Still, it has once been something important enough to be entrusted with the experience of world as such. How to do justice to this importance in the flatness of an age for which knowledge is technology and language a simple carrier of information?
This is a task for thinking and / or art. One must start by re-building the strangeness of light. Not some mystical mystery – that would be the easy way out –, but a certain… it is difficult to even say what.
For Oana Fărcaş light is a female entity. It has a womb. But it is not necessarily a human. Is it a goddess, is it an animal? We do not know, and there is hardly any other option. It has something motherly anyway. This strangely coincides with the position of the greatest (and most forgotten) French thinker of all times – Gérard Granel (1930-2000). Insignificant as this detail might seem, it would be worth asking ourselves why certain artists and certain thinkers insist upon light. What logical muse instills in them such inspiration?
Light is a strange mother. We do not know what grows inside her womb. One can only guess. This is what Oana Fărcaş does in this series of paintings. She takes us to this (imaginary?) place that is the womb of light, and shows us what she "sees" there. She cannot stop at only one image. There are flashes that try articulating the same – a "landscape" where there is no landscape, there is no sight. Is this a panorama of sheer optical phenomena? Hardly so. There is nothing naturalistic in her approach, in the images she chooses to rework in order to articulate a secondary meaning that comes forth only when they are read together. Light loses its natural character, is withdrawn from the physicist's lab, it is no longer dissected. It is shown instead. But always wrapped in strangeness. There are no simple answers to how things look in the womb of light. But there are some answers still. The viewers must decide on their own.

Asger Dybvad Larsen
Art as Art
9 January – 14 February 2015
LARMgalleri is expanding with an additional exhibition space in the basement of the gallery. Asger Dybvad Larsen will inaugurate this new exhibition space with a solo exhibition Art as Art. Asger Dybvad Larsen's conceptual paintings are identified most clearly in their dialectical conversation with the medium's traditions and its classic structure. This is done with a substantial focus on the traditional paintings materials. He sands the painting so that the wooden frame appears as part of the piece. This particular process focuses on the physicality of the painting and stores the process in the surface of the art work – one of the medium's strengths. Asger Dybvad Larsen also works with surfaces in his paint-tray paintings. An acrylic paint-cast of the tray's structural surface is mounted on a canvas and acts as an abstract motif in the work, and refers back to the precursors and the basic materials of a traditional painting.
Asger Dybvad Larsen (b. 1990) lives and works in Aarhus, where he is a student at the Jutland Academy of Art.

When booking my summer holiday to gran canaria,early in sept!Found the hotel,and location great,wasn't until I confined holiday did I know that we were flying with Ryanair!! when booking the holiday,and flight times,you should be. Aware fcwhat airline you will be flying with.So the holiday was confirmed,so I couldn't do anything,So I contacted Travel Republic the next day,and sad I couldn't change Airlines!unless I was prepared to pay for flights with no refund on the original booking..Very disappointed with this,as I had heard awful stories,and bad reviews aboutvRyanair,so as iam not a good flyer was feeling very nervous about this!
I do believe that when you book a holiday,the customer should be made aware of who the airlines are.after all we are paying for this holiday!!?
Not the most comfortable flight,old,worn,and not very friendly staff.Cost a lot of money to reserve seats,but it's the panic to get on first,and save your seats,easy jet used to be like that,but they have improved and a much better aircraft.
Just felt disappointed so won't be using Travel Republuc again!!

By Bryan MurrayWashingtonLast updated on January 28, 2015 Tweeter The Beautiful Life Reunion, the one we've been wanting for 1 year?Related NewsLove January 28, 2015Corbin Bleu: Secretly Married?Pets January 22, 2015Ashton Kutcher's Dog Recovering from SurgeryShocker January 28, 2015Mischa Barton Nude Photos Leaked OnlineRumors of a the Beautiful Life reunion had the internet in a frenzy on Tuesday (January 27) as reports claimed that The CW confirmed a revival of the popular sitcom for 2016.UPDATE 28/01/2015 : This story seems to be false. (read more)Can you believe it's been 5 years since the Beautiful Life first aired?! (5 years, 4 months, 12 days to be exact.)Why in the world did the Beautiful Life end?When the Beautiful Life came to an end after 1 year in December 2009, million viewers tuned in to say goodbye to Sonja Stone (Mischa Barton). And since then, they have been itching for a reunion.Would a Beautiful Life reunion disappoint people?The Beautiful Life aired from 2009-2009 and is considered one of the most influential TV shows ever on pop culture. Although no original episodes have been shot since, it has remained a regular feature on many station's schedules. But Barton said she's not sure if the Beautiful Life would work today. "I don't want to see old Sonja Stone," she told a journalist (Barton turned 29 in January). "Everyone's going to have different vision of what the character is like, so to have that materialize is going to disappoint most people," she added.Still hoping for a Beautiful Life movie? In a recent interview, Corbin Bleu (who played Isaac Taylor) said he can't imagine a Beautiful Life reunion hitting the big screen. "I'd rather people go, 'Oh, please! Please!' than 'I can't believe you did that. It was horrible.'" Co-star Elle Macpherson (who played Claudia Foster) has also previously explained, "It would be terrible to do something and have it not be good,". "It was so terrific ... If we did a Beautiful Life movie and it sucked, then it would, you know, blemish it." On the subject of whether there could be a Beautiful Life film, Mischa Barton stated : "I think it's a bit of a case of 'the book is better than the movie'."What about a Beautiful Life reboot?Recasting the Beautiful Life for a modern reboot. Hollywood is known for remaking remakes of films or tv series and the studios might think it would be great to bring the story back with a new set of characters.Be it in the form of a Beautiful Life reunion, a Beautiful Life movie, or a Beautiful Life reboot, if you had to start filming today, who would you cast in what role?© 2015 MediaMass All rights reserved.

Review of the First Year of CMS's Durable Medical Equipment Competitive Bidding Program's Round 1 Rebid
GAO-12-693: Published: May 9, 2012. Publicly Released: May 9, 2012.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
What GAO Found
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), implemented the durable medical equipment (DME) competitive bidding programs (CBP) bidding process for the round 1 rebid. Nearly the same number of suppliers submitted a similar number of bids for both the CBP round 1 rebid and round 1. Many suppliers continued to have difficulty complying with financial documentation requirements; however, the number of bids disqualified in the round 1 rebid was significantly less than for round 1. After being notified of their bid results, some suppliers were found to have bids that were disqualified incorrectly and were subsequently offered round 1 rebid contracts. About one-third of the bidding suppliers were awarded CBP contracts.
Relatively few CBP contract suppliers (those awarded CBP contracts) had their contracts terminated by CMS, voluntarily canceled their contracts, or were involved in ownership changes. Under the CBP, non-contract suppliers (those not awarded CBP contracts) can grandfather certain rental DME for beneficiaries they were servicing prior to the implementation of CBP until CBP-covered beneficiaries rental periods expire. Also, some CBP contract suppliers entered into subcontracting agreements with non-contract suppliers to furnish certain services to CBP-covered beneficiaries in the round 1 rebid.
CMSs ongoing multiple monitoring activities generally indicate that beneficiary DME access and satisfaction have not been affected by CBP. Although some of these efforts have limitations, in the aggregate, they provide useful information to CMS regarding beneficiary access and satisfaction.
Early data indicate that utilization has decreased in some CBP-covered DME categories. GAOs review of Medicare claims data found that fewer beneficiaries in competitive bidding areas received some CBP-covered items in any of the first six months of 2011 than in the same month of 2010.
Although the first year of the CBP round 1 rebid has been completed, it is too soon to determine its full effects on Medicare beneficiaries and DME suppliers. GAO found that, in general, the round 1 rebid was successfully implemented. GAO also found that utilization of selected DME declined in the CBP areas; while there are many possible reasons for this, it does not necessarily indicate that beneficiaries have not had access to needed DME. GAO does not assume that all pre-CBP utilization was appropriate and the CBP may have reduced unnecessary utilization of DME. More experience with DME competitive bidding is needed, particularly to see if evidence of beneficiary access problems emerges. For that reason, it is important to continue monitoring changes in the number of suppliers serving CBP-covered beneficiaries.
In commenting on a draft of this report, HHS noted that the CBP round 1 rebid resulted in savings of more than $200 million in its first year. HHS also cited the results of CMSs monitoring of beneficiaries access to DME in CBP areas as evidence that the CBP did not affect beneficiaries adversely.
Why GAO Did This Study
To achieve Medicare savings for DME, the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA) required that CMS implement the CBP for certain DME. In 2008, the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act (MIPPA) terminated the first round of supplier contracts and required CMS to repeat the CBP round 1referred to as the round 1 rebid, resulting in the award of contracts to suppliers with payments that began January 1, 2011. CMS has estimated that the rebid will lead to significant savings for Medicare.
MIPPA requires GAO to examine certain aspects of the CBP. In this report, GAO reviews (1) the outcomes of the CBP round 1 rebid process; (2) the effect of the CBP round 1 rebid on DME suppliers; (3) how the CBP round 1 rebid has affected Medicare beneficiary access to and satisfaction with selected DME; and (4) the extent to which the CBP round 1 rebid has affected the utilization of selected DME items.
To examine CBP outcomes and effects, GAO analyzed data from CMS and its feedback provided to bidding suppliers, analyzed 2011 CBP data about different types of suppliers, and interviewed CMS and CBP contractor officials, DME industry groups, and suppliers. To examine CBPs effects on beneficiary access, GAO analyzed Medicare claims data for the first six months of 2011 because the data for those months were the most complete, and compared it to the same months in 2010.
