Open Source Program Office Guide

What's in the guide:

Digital Service at CMS (DSACMS)

We're a group of civic-minded technologists transforming how the federal government delivers healthcare to the American people. The Digital Service at CMS (DSAC) consists of engineers, designers, and product managers—serving our country by building and maintaining the technology underpinning our national health care programs.

Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)

Every day, millions of people in this country interact with the healthcare system. We believe these interactions should be straightforward, transparent and seamless. Whether it's looking for health insurance, making sense of medical bills, or researching nursing homes, we are working to unlock medical information and empower people with health data.

What does the Digital Service at CMS do?

We work to transform the U.S. healthcare system by:

  • Modernizing systems
  • Improving the design of healthcare experiences
  • Participating in policy development
  • Delivering value to the government, healthcare providers, and patients

We accomplish these goals by bringing the best and brightest talent from industry and government to CMS for a "tour of duty." By collaborating closely with dedicated CMS career civil servants, our work includes everything from creating public websites to implementing new legislation in back-office systems. Learn more about our work here.

What does the Open Source Program Office (OSPO) at CMS do?

Establish and maintain guidance, policies, practices, and talent pipelines that advance equity, build trust, and amplify impact across CMS, HHS, and Federal Open Source Ecosystems by working and sharing openly.
