JR & Ali Show: Jeff Grant on CMS RIFs and His Startup’s Effort to Reintegrate Fired Talent

In this episode of The JR and Ali Show, JR Glass, President of GovCon Growth Solutions and Ali Steer, President of Steer Operational Solutions welcome special guest, former CMS CCIIO leader Jeffrey Grant, an entrepreneurial manager of major health programs in the Federal sector, leading the implementation of Affordable Care Act, Medicare Advantage and Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit payment policies, operations, and systems.

Jeffrey shares his personal journey from retirement from government to his planned launch of Schedule F Healthcare Strategies with the intent to hire the best public health policy experts, expecting that they would be terminated under the infamous Schedule F.

Instead, Jeff and Schedule F launch amid a massive unemployment crisis for career civil servants, including a few hundred from CMS. Schedule F has a new, crucial mission of placing all of these wrongfully fired, highly capable people.

The conversation shares an inside look into the timeline for how actions have played out at CMS, some insight into the fallout, and how he continues to advocate for his colleagues even after leaving government service.
