The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) established national standards through Appendix Z of the State Operations Manual, requiring all participating providers to develop and maintain a comprehensive, all-hazards emergency preparedness program. These requirements are designed to ensure providers can effectively plan for, respond to, and recover from both natural and man-made emergencies while maintaining continuity of care.
