The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is the nation's largest health insurer and the largest grant-making agency in the federal government. HHS programs impact all Americans, whether through direct services, scientific advances, or information that helps them choose medical care, medicine, or even food. For example, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), a major operating division within HHS, is responsible for the Medicare and Medicaid programs that provide care to about one in every four Americans. In carrying out their responsibilities, both HHS and CMS rely extensively on networked information systems containing sensitive medical and financial information. GAO was asked to assess the effectiveness of HHS's information security program, with emphasis on CMS, in protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of its information and information systems.
