Mehmet Oz would be nominated to head the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services .

Oz’s investments total tens of millions of dollars , according to financial disclosures he filed during his failed 2022 run for a Pennsylvania U.S. Senate seat.

It's not clear if Oz, a heart surgeon by training, still holds investments in health care companies, or if he would divest his shares.

Dr. Oz's investments in companies doing business with the federal government don’t end with big insurers.

He and his family also hold hospital stocks, as well as a stake in Amazon worth as much as nearly $2.4 million .

Oz may gain or lose financially from other Trump administration proposals.
