In this episode of The Dish on Health IT, host Tony Schueth is joined by co-host Alix Goss and special guest Amy Gleason, Strategic Advisor to Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and Administrator of the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) Service, for a wide-ranging discussion on how health IT modernization is evolving under a pledge-driven, incentive-backed federal strategy.

In this episode of The Dish on Health IT, host Tony Schueth, CEO of Point-of-Care Partners (POCP), is joined by colleagues Mary Griskewicz, Regulatory Resource Center Lead, and Janice Reese, Senior Consultant and Program Manager of FHIR at Scale Taskforce (FAST), for a wide-ranging discussion on two major proposed rules released in mid-December 2025: the HTI-5 proposed rule from the Assistant Secretary for Technology Policy (ASTP) and CMS’s latest proposal on healthcare price transparency.

Rather than treating these rules as abstract policy exercises, the conversation focuses on what the government is trying to accomplish, how these proposals may reshape the interoperability and data access landscape, and why stakeholder participation during the comment period is not optional if the industry wants workable outcomes.

This episode of The Dish on Health IT features guest, Denny Brennan, Executive Director of the Massachusetts Health Data Consortium (MHDC), in conversation with host Tony Schueth, CEO of Point-of-Care Partners (POCP), and co-host Ross Martin, MD, Senior Consultant with POCP. Together, they examine how MHDC is translating national interoperability policy into practical, statewide action, specifically around the CMS 0057 rule.

Topic:
Health plans and their health tech partners are facing three major priorities at once:

- Meeting compliance requirements under CMS-0057
- Responding to the new CMS and payer pledge to reduce prior authorization burdens across government and commercial plans
- Advancing their own interoperability roadmaps to improve provider collaboration, operational efficiency, and member experience

Too often, these efforts are managed in silos. This webinar explores how health plans can connect the dots, leveraging investments made for CMS-0057 compliance to also support the industry’s prior authorization commitments and accelerate broader strategic goals.
