CMS IDea Challenge: Submit Interest Form by September 26th

CALLING ALL INNOVATORS! The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is hosting two in-person events to combat fraud involving health plan identifiers (ID) and enhance the security of those IDs. These collaborative events will bring together experts from diverse backgrounds to develop innovative ways to protect patient information.

Attendees will spend a full day working in small teams of diverse, professional backgrounds to develop ideas to improve member ID security. At the end of the day, each group will pitch their solutions to CMS and vote on a winning concept.

CMS is seeking participants who can offer varied perspectives to better protect patient information. No advance preparation is required and you do not need technical skills to participate.

November 5, 2025, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM PST, San Francisco, California

November 13, 2025, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM EST, New York, New York
