CDO Application Open Season - Now Live & Available Year-Round!

________________________________________________________________________



We are pleased to announce the Certified Application Counselor Designated Organization (CDO) Application web form [ https://mats-cms-ccrms.my.salesforce-sites.com/CDOApplication/ ] is *"now live and will remain available year-round"*"! "

CDOs are a vital component of the assister community. In states with a Federally-facilitated Marketplace (FFM), CDOs oversee Certified Application Counselors (CACs), who are annually trained and able to help consumers seeking health coverage options through the Marketplace.

Help us spread the word - the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) invites *new applicant organizations* who want to become CDOs to apply.

This announcement applies only to organizations that:


* Wish to apply to the CDO program operating in an FFM state, and
* *Do not *currently have an active CMS-CDO agreement with CMS

"*Organizations with an active CMS-CDO agreement should disregard this message.*"* *If you are unsure if your organization has an active CMS-CDO agreement with CMS, please contact us at *CACQuestions@cms.hhs.gov* <CACQuestions@cms.hhs.gov%20>.

*Only organizations that complete the two steps below and receive a CDO ID from CMS can certify staff or volunteers as CACs in an FFM state to provide enrollment assistance services.*
