CMS will be undertaking an agency e-mail transition over Labor Day weekend. As a result, RDS e-mail services will be unavailable from 6:00 p.m. ET on Friday, September 2, 2022 until 6:00 a.m. ET on Wednesday, September 7, 2022.

Please do not send e-mails to CMS’ RDS Center (i.e., RDS@cms.hhs.gov, RDSAppeals@cms.hhs.gov, etc.) during this time. Any e-mail sent over the Holiday weekend will result in a message indicating the e-mail address does not exist, and the e-mail will not be delivered. Please also do not send Support Requests (i.e., questions submitted through the RDS Secure Website) to CMS’ RDS Center during this time. The inquiry will not be delivered.

Please do not perform any of the following actions within the Secure Website between 6:00 p.m. ET on Friday, September 2, 2022 until 6:00 a.m. ET on Wednesday, September 7, 2022:

  • Register as an RDS Secure Website User
