GLI® SecureARC-AMPE Compliance Support.

The Acceptable Risk Controls for ACA, Medicaid, and Partner Entities (ARC-AMPE) framework is the updated cybersecurity and privacy standard introduced by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). It replaces the legacy MARS-E v2.2 framework and establishes a more modern, risk-based approach to protecting sensitive healthcare data across federal, state, and partner ecosystems.

Overview

A modern, risk-based approach to protecting healthcare data.

ARC-AMPE enhances how organizations manage cybersecurity, privacy, and operational risk for ACA and Medicaid data, with a focus on continuous risk assessment, identity management, data protection, incident response, and supply chain oversight.

Compliance is required for CMS-aligned organizations to maintain eligibility, trust, and operational continuity.
