Wednesday May 3, 2017 in Washington, DC

DATES: The meeting will be held on Tuesday, May 2, 2017 from 9:15 a.m. 
to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time and Wednesday May 3, 2017 from 9:00 a.m. to 
3:30 p.m. Eastern Time. The meetings are open to the public.

ADDRESSES: The meeting will be held at Hubert Humphrey Building 200

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dr. Donald Oellerich, Designated

[email protected] or (202) 690-8410.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    I. Purpose: The Panel will discuss the long-term rate of change in 
health spending and may make recommendations to the Secretary on how 
the Medicare Trustees might more accurately estimate health spending in 
the short and long run. The Panel's discussion is expected to be very 
technical in nature and will focus on the actuarial and economic 
assumptions and methods by which Trustees might more accurately measure 
health spending. This Committee is governed by the provisions of the 
Federal Advisory Committee Act, as amended (5 U.S.C. App. 2, section 
10(a)(1) and (a)(2)). The Committee is composed of nine members 
appointed by the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation.
    II. Agenda: The Panel will likely discuss draft findings and 
recommendations for inclusion in the panel's final report. Discussions 
will likely include findings and recommendations regarding long range 
growth, sustainability of provider payments under Affordable Care Act 
(ACA) and Medicare Access and Chip Reauthorization Act (MACRA), methods 
for transitioning from short term (10 year) to long term (75 year) 
projections and methods and the presentation of uncertainty in the 
report. After any presentations, the Panel will deliberate openly on 
the topics. Interested persons may observe the deliberations, but the 
Panel will not hear public comments during this time. The Panel will 
also allow an open public session for any attendee to address issues 
specific to the topic.
    III. Meeting Attendance: The Tuesday, May 2, 2017 and Wednesday, 
May 3, 2017 meetings are open to the public; however, in-person 
attendance is limited to space available.
    IV. Meeting Registration: The public may attend the meeting in-
person. Space is limited and registration is required in order to 
attend in-person. Registration may be completed by emailing all the
