• In fiscal year 1998, HHS had budget outlays totaling over $359 billion and a workforce of over 57,000 employees. Medicare, the nation’s largest health care insurer, spends far more than most cabinet departments; last year, it handled an estimated 800 million claims and paid out about $200 billion. In addition, HHS is the largest federal grant-making agency, providing approximately 60,000 grants a year.
