      It’s detailed in the last line, but CMS is Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.

      As CMS Administrator, Oz would oversee a broad agency that provides coverage through Medicare, Medicaid and other programs to more than 160 million people.

        Ok, I know he’s full of crackpot shit.

        But what does Mehmet(lol) Oz think of Medicare and Medicaid? What is his stance?

        I get he’s going to push crazy tabloid products on seniors, but… the actual, coverage part. Got a mom.

          He’s promoted unproven medical treatments for personal gain, opposed the Affordable Care Act, and supports the expansion of advantage plans aka privatized/subsidized medicare. Pretty mainline republican, but all this likely means more money out of your mom’s pocket for care.
