CMS leader and innovator Jeffrey Grant exits, launches Schedule F Healthcare Strategies

Jeff Grant, a distinguished former CMS executive who announced his departure from the agency in February, leverages over 25 years of federal healthcare expertise in his latest venture—Schedule F Health Strategies. Known for his key roles in implementing landmark initiatives such as the Affordable Care Act, Medicare Advantage, and Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit programs, Grant now turns his focus to bridging critical gaps in federal healthcare consulting.

At CMS, Grant most recently served as the Deputy Director for Operations in the Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight (CCIIO), where he oversaw 450 federal staff and thousands of contractors. His leadership was instrumental in enrolling millions of Americans in private health insurance and rolling out essential consumer protections, including the No Surprises Act.

Now, as President and Founder of Schedule F Health Strategies, Grant channels his deep industry knowledge into a dual mission. The consultancy offers specialized consulting in federal healthcare policy, health information technology, and government contract support, while also providing a platform to re-engage some of the nation’s most experienced public health policy experts. These professionals, who bring decades of expertise to the table, are given a new opportunity to contribute meaningfully to both public and private sector initiatives.

A retired Navy Reservist with 22 years of service, Grant combines military discipline with a proven track record in federal management, making him uniquely qualified to navigate today’s complex public health landscape. His new venture stands as a testament to his commitment to innovation and his vision for a more dynamic, resilient federal healthcare system.
