Digital Printing in Government

Ray Wajbel, Printing and Publications Manager for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) then spoke about his in-plant, which uses new Océ cut-sheet monochrome and color digital equipment.

“Within CMS, we are currently responsible for over a billion pieces of outreach notices being distributed through the year,” said Wajbel. These are outsourced through GPO and other partners. The internal facility was a copy center, but is now turning into a print and mail facility, he said. Volume has been increasing while budgets have not changed, which is a major challenge.
