 * Ensuring secure, trustable communications between payers and providers or agents
 * Compliance with FISMA for transactions to CMS and other relevant federal agencies or their agents
 * Time required to ensure CMS solution aligns with other payer requirements
 * Availability of dataset information from requesting provider or agent (ex. If the registration requestor does not have an NPI or Alternate ID)
 * Inconsistencies in information provided in the registration request with information contained in payer internal systems or External Provider Directory (ex. If a provider is registered differently in both systems T. Smith and Tom Smith)
 * Ensuring that there are consistent and reliable mechanisms for establishing and updating Provider Directories
 * The inability to receive the correct Electronic Service Information for the desired destination because of incomplete request or federation
 * Potential for misidentification of a desired Electronic Service Information destination and the inappropriate sharing of information
 * Potential opportunities for unauthorized organization to register and obtain eMDRs.
 * Potential for expired information if consumer system caches destination and electronic service information
