Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services; Jun 23, 2020
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is announcing the creation of the Office of Burden Reduction and Health Informatics to unify the agency’s efforts to reduce regulatory and administrative burden and to further the goal of putting patients first.

State Officials Announce Latest COVID-19 Facts
California Department of Public Health; June 24, 2020
The California Department of Public Health today announced the most recent statistics on COVID-19. California's positivity rate – a key indicator of community spread – is trending modestly upward in the 14-day average. Hospitalization rates over the long-term are showing a slight uptick in the 14-day average. California has 190,222 confirmed cases to date. Numbers may not represent true day-over-day change as reporting of test results can be delayed. There have been 3,592,899 tests conducted in California. As testing capacity continues to increase across the state, an increase in the number of positive cases has been expected – increasing the importance of positivity rates to find signs of community spread. There have been 5,632 COVID-19 deaths since the start of the pandemic.
