Are you looking for names and emails of CMS medical directors? There's a report for that.
Go to the Medicare Coverage Database and click on REPORTS. Under "Local Coverage" find the "MAC Contacts Report." (Prior, there often had been a PDF of MAC contacts buried somewhere on the CMS website.)

Nerd Note:
How to Find CMS MAC Medical Directors
(the Easy Way)
Are you on the hunt for CMS medical director names and emails like a hound dog sniffing out a scent trail? You’re in luck.
For years, Medicare stakeholders played “Where’s Waldo?” when trying to find who was in charge at their local MAC. If you were lucky, you stumbled across a crusty old PDF on the CMS website listing contact points—usually two versions out of date.
No more. CMS has given us a grown-up toy train set: a live, sortable MAC Contacts Report on the Medicare Coverage Database. This is your one-stop-shop for finding out who’s who at each MAC—from CGS to Noridian to Palmetto and beyond. Medical directors, emails, contracts, coverage areas—you name it, it’s here.
👉 Head over to the CMS Medicare Coverage Database Reports page.
👉 Click on “MAC Contacts Report” under the “Local Coverage” section.
👉 Or go directly to the MAC Contacts Report here.
You’ll see contacts like:
-
Meredith Loveless, MD, Chief Medical Officer for CGS Part A and Part B (covering Kentucky and Ohio)
-
Neil Sandler, MD, leading CGS’s HHH MAC work across states from Colorado to Virginia
It’s all in there. You can even download the Excel file (the highlight of our week!) and nerd out on the full list, like any self-respecting policy wonk with a thing for coverage logic, LCDs, and email addresses ending in @cgsadmin.com.
So go ahead, bookmark it, share it, and bask in the glow of government transparency—one Excel file at a time.
