Consumers Met With OMB Dec. 27 To Seek Issuance Of Strict Sunshine Rule-insidehealthpolicy:  Consumer advocates met with White House officials Dec. 27 to urge them to quickly review the long-overdue physician-payment disclosure regulation and reject several revisions sought by the American Medical Association, according to consumer representatives who attended the meeting. CMS officials last year said they hoped to release the regulation by the end of 2012, and a couple of physician groups pointed out to the agency last week that it missed that goal.
