The CMS operates under the Department of Health and Human Services. Donald Trump has nominated Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to head HHS.

“America is facing a Healthcare Crisis, and there may be no Physician more qualified and capable than Dr. Oz to Make America Healthy Again,” Trump said in a statement posted on Truth Social. “He is an eminent Physician, Heart Surgeon, Inventor, and World-Class Communicator, who has been at the forefront of healthy living for decades.”

Trump wrote that he plans for Dr. Oz to “work closely” with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., who the president-elect appointed to run the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

In addition to Medicare and Medicaid the CMS Administrator oversees the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) and the Affordable Care Act Health Insurance Marketplaces.

As you might expect, not everyone shares Dr. Saphier’s optimism.

If Tom and the Lincoln Project crowd are upset then it’s probably a solid pick.

Senator John Fetterman, who defeated Dr. Oz in Pennsylvania’s 2022 senatorial election, weighed in.

Are we missing something or has Fetterman become a voice of reason on the left?

Oz, like many of Trump’s picks, has caused a bit of a stir. It’s left many wondering what, or who, is coming next.
