Healthcare Informatics: On Feb. 7, President Barack Obama re-nominated Marilyn Tavenner, R.N., to be administrator of the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Tavenner, 61, has been acting administrator of CMS since 2011, when then-director Donald Berwick, M.D., stepped down, after the term of his recess appointment had concluded. The President had originally nominated Tavenner to the permanent post in November 2011, but the U.S. Senate never held hearings on the nomination, which expired at the end of 2012; thus, this nomination is a re-nomination.
