Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services

Overview

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is a U.S. federal agency under the Department of Health and Human Services. It administers major health coverage programs, including Medicare, Medicaid, the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and the Health Insurance Marketplace, serving over 160 million Americans. CMS's mission is to enhance the U.S. healthcare system by improving access to quality care, promoting health equity, and reducing costs.

CMS collaborates with states, healthcare providers, and the community to improve healthcare quality and outcomes. The organization includes the CMS Innovation Center, which tests new payment and care delivery models, and the Office of Minority Health, which focuses on advancing health equity. CMS oversees essential programs such as Medicare for seniors and eligible individuals, Medicaid for low-income populations, and provides resources like data tools, reports, and guidance on healthcare policy and quality improvement.
