 It's possible to review agenda items and comment on them as a member of the public but the status as a commenter must be justified (e.g. clinician in the specialty, manufacturer of the technology).

QUOTE:  Upon review of this agenda, [someone who] believes that they may want to provide written comments on an application, the reviewer must seek Interested Party status by submitting a request form. The form requires identification of the potential Interested Party, a brief summary of the basis for the request (e.g., associated vendor/ industry representative), and signature of the confidentiality agreement and disclosure of interest forms.
