Further, AH does so at lower overall cost to patients and third-party reimbursors such as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) and numerous independent health insurance companies. CMS is part of the Department of Health and Human Services and oversees the U.S. government’s Medicare and Medicaid programs.
