Provider Peer Grouping Issue Papers
The Minnesota Department of Health issued a request for information (RFI) in spring 2009 to gather information about provider peer grouping. The information collected from the RFI and through additional background research are synthesized into a set of issue papers. These papers served as the starting point for a public advisory group to provide recommendations on the development of the peer grouping system.
