VIENNA, Va., Oct. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- MicroStrategy® Incorporated (Nasdaq: MSTR), a leading worldwide provider of business intelligence (BI) software, today extended its congratulations to Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) for receiving numerous awards for its information dashboard. Powered by MicroStrategy, the CMS Dashboard Beta provides transparency into over $100 billion in Medicare hospital inpatient spending.

The CMS Dashboard Beta, which can be viewed from the CMS website, was recognized by Government Computer News (GCN) for "Outstanding Information Technology Achievement in Government."  The winning projects were selected from nearly 100 nominations submitted to GCN, based on the degree to which a given IT project improved an agency's ability to operate more efficiently or serve the public more effectively.
