What the document says“In addition to amounts otherwise available, there is appropriated to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Program Management Account, out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, $188,000,000 for fiscal year 2026, to remain available until expended, to carry out this section.”
Subsection (f) of section 6223 appropriates $188,000,000 to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Program Management Account for fiscal year 2026, in addition to amounts otherwise available, to remain available until expended, to carry out the section.
What the document actually says“In addition to amounts otherwise available, there is appropriated to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Program Management Account, out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, $188,000,000 for fiscal year 2026, to remain available until expended, to carry out this section.”
The sum of $188,000,000 goes to one account for 2026. It may be held until it is spent. It pays for the work of this part.
This is the largest sum in this title. The work here is heavy: new standards, a complaint system, and reports for years.
