Health System Modernization Act
Explanation:
I've seen this law translated several wayss: here's another possibility.

The plan to establish a German Centre for Quality in Medicine forms part of the draft Health System Modernization Act (GMG).

The GMG is a reform project still much in the tradition of cost containment legislation. If implemented, the GMG will take the SHI 2000 Act (Act to Strengthen Solidarity in Statutory Health Insurance) a step further in that it contains previsions to ease contractual relations between insurers and providers as well as incentives to facilitate "integrated care", i.e. to overcome the fragmentation between hospital-based and private practice provision of health care services.

agree  jerrie: Abbreviation definitely GMG. If googled, another translation found: Law for modernization of the legal health insurance (!?), which sounds a bit odd.
