The five RFIs: what's on the record, what's missing
An RFI (“request for information”) is CMS thinking out loud: no policy is proposed yet, and the answers shape what lands in future rules. CMS includes a few in every fee-schedule proposal.

How organic is the docket
Original comments vs. organized campaigns
Many comments are near-identical templates from an organized campaign, sometimes with a single sentence changed. We group them by text similarity, applied evenly to every campaign and every viewpoint. Agencies weigh unique, substantive comments differently from mass submissions, so this separates the two.
