General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT) Healthcare Information Technology (HIT) first designed and developed VMS for Medicare Part B in 1979 and has continued to maintain and enhance the system for over 30 years. VMS, a large, complex system containing approximately 8,500 elements and over 2 million lines of code, is the standard Medicare system for all DMEPOS claims. GDIT HIT supports four VMS quarterly releases each year with over 10,000 development hours for each release. As a CMMI ML3-certified vendor using unsurpassed quality measures, GDIT HIT has never missed a timeline mandated by CMS for VMS, including those for CAST submissions and baseline configuration.
