Policy Spotlight: One-On-One with Meena Seshamani

During this Policy Spotlight, Health Affairs Editor-in-Chief Alan Weil will speak with Meena Seshamani, Deputy Administrator & Director, Center for Medicare, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), about her work leading the Agency’s efforts to provide affordable, quality coverage and care for more than 63 million Americans that rely on the Medicare program. Before joining CMS, Dr. Seshamani was Vice President of Clinical Care Transformation at MedStar Health, and an assistant professor of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery at the Georgetown University School of Medicine. She recently co-authored, “Building On The CMS Strategic Vision: Working Together For A Stronger Medicare,” for Health Affairs Forefront, with CMS colleagues Chiquita Brooks-LaSure and Elizabeth Fowler, where they laid out a policy agenda for CMS focused on five key areas: advancing health equity; expanding access to affordable health coverage and care; driving high quality, person-centered care; promoting affordability and sustainability; and engaging partners and communities.
