Cms is the abbreviation for which federal health program agency?

• A. Osha
• B. Snf
• C. Cms
• D. Msds

Answer: (C)

Understanding which federal health program agency is responsible for Medicare and Medicaid is key. CMS stands for Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services that administers Medicare, Medicaid, and the Children's Health Insurance Program, along with related health-care payment and policy programs. That’s why this is the best choice—the abbreviation corresponds to the agency that runs these major federal health programs. The other options aren’t federal health program agencies: OSHA handles workplace safety, SNF usually means Skilled Nursing Facility (a type of facility, not an agency), and MSDS refers to Material Safety Data Sheets.
