In an effort to improve the value and service that CMS provides to the Nation, the CMS has modified its structure to align similar functions under common executive leadership and allow CMS to establish a Center for Program Integrity and to strengthen its focus on beneficiary services and strategic planning. The structure includes the following, which all report to the Administrator, CMS: (1) Center for Medicare, (2) Center for Medicaid, CHIP and Survey & Certification, (3) Center for Strategic Planning, (4) Center for Program Integrity, and (5) Office of External Affairs and Beneficiary Services. In addition, the current role of the Chief Operating Officer (COO) has been formalized and remains responsible for operations, information systems, contracts, finance, E-health standards and services, and the Consortia. The COO continues to report to the Administrator, CMS. The following organizations remain substantively unchanged and continue to report to the Administrator, CMS: Office of Equal Opportunity and Civil Rights, Office of Legislation, Office of the Actuary, Office of Clinical Standards and Quality, and the Office of Strategic Operations and Regulatory Affairs (will be renamed the Office of Executive Operations and Regulatory Affairs to more accurately reflect the work of the organization). New administrative codes were assigned to all organizations, including the immediate office of the Administrator. Given the complexity and importance of CMS’ programs, this realignment of existing functions positions CMS to consistently excel in serving our beneficiaries and strategically positions CMS for the future. Additionally, this effort ensures common core functions are under common executive leadership and share a consistent vision. The specific amendments to Part F are described below: I. Under Part F, CMS, Office of the Administrator, FA.10 Organization is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: FC.10 Organization. CMS is headed by the Administrator, CMS, and includes the following organizational components: Office of the Administrator (FC) Office of Equal Opportunity and Civil Rights (FCA) E:\FR\FM\24MRN1.SGM 24MRN1
