The New York Adequacy Challenge
New York is a densest urban market + extreme rural north state. MA plan sponsors operating here must satisfy CMS time-distance standards across all 62 counties — a task that demands accurate county classifications and pre-loaded specialty categories. Getting it wrong means adequacy gap notices and potential filing rejections.
North Country and Southern Tier (St. Lawrence, Hamilton, Delaware counties) have extreme provider shortages requiring telehealth exception filings
