Leslie Norwalk, Administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, received a letter from the Mississippi congressional delegation endorsing culture change principles and the Green House model.

Administrator Norwalk replied with a letter describing the many activities that CMS is pursuing to "engage in communication with culture change innovators and to inform our survey agencies of how these innovations can comply with Federal requirements."

The letter was sent to Senators Cochran and Lott, and Represenatives Taylor, Pickering, Thompson, and Wicker.
