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 hear presentations from two 
outside experts; one on prescription drugs spending and a second on 
spillover effects. In addition the HHS Office of the Actuary will 
present on issues the panel may wish to address. Additional 
presentations 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 may follow. 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, February 7, 2017 and 
Wednesday February 8, 2017 meetings are open to the public; however,
