CMS extended the deadline to submit Medicare Graduate Medical Education (GME) affiliation agreements to January 1, 2021. Two or more teaching hospitals can form a GME group to combine direct and/or indirect medical education resident caps and train residents. During the Public Health Emergency (PHE), email new or amended agreements by January 1, to Medicare_GME_Affiliation_Agreement@cms.hhs.gov with “new” or “amended” in the subject line, and send a copy to your MAC.
