UOAA Discussion Board

Have you undergone colon resection surgery (any partial or full removal of the colon, with or without an ostomy) within the past 3 years? On behalf of CMS (the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services), the firm Westat is conducting a research project and is looking for Medicare beneficiary participants for a series of discussions on their experiences. Survey respondents who meet their criteria will be asked if they’d like to participate in a discussion about the care they received and health care value more generally. Those who are selected will be paid $50 as a thank you for participating in their discussion. If interested, go here:

Note: As of August 2019 this survey is now closed.

Thank you for your consideration.
