Convergence 2016: Centers for Medicare and Medicaid

For the past 40 years, the Federal Business Council has produced thousands of symposiums, expositions, training forums, and conferences, both on-site and off, for the Department of Defense, Intelligence Community, and civilian agencies. 2016 stands to improve upon our schedule, with over 100 events planned.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is holding its second Information Technology (IT) Conference, “Convergence 2016” on Thursday, August 4, 2016 at its central office located in Baltimore, MD.

This conference provides a single forum where technology efforts, including lessons learned from recent projects are shared across the organization. This forum enables collaboration, facilitates communication and provides the opportunity for technology alignment throughout the agency. Business components throughout CMS are presenting the material for each of the information sessions, which are open to all CMS personnel as well as contractors that provide technology support.

The Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS), Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) works in partnership with the entire health care community to improve quality and efficiency in an evolving health care system and provides leadership in the broader health care marketplace.   CMS covers 100 million people ...through Medicare, Medicaid, the Children's Health Insurance Program, and the Health Insurance Marketplace. But coverage isn't their goal. To achieve a high quality health care system, they also aim for better care at lower costs and improved health.
