Proud to go to the White House yesterday to recognize passage of the #InflationReductionAct. Thank you, @POTUS and Congress for taking action to keep real money in the pockets of Americans and extend health care tax credits for nearly 13 million individuals.
The new framework from @BCBSAssociation and the @AspenInstitute explores how Americans with rare conditions can afford life-saving treatments. I applaud the working group, including co-chairs @ScottGottliebMD and Margaret Hamburg, and our @JustineHandelm1. https://t.co/kwVm2oTkah

No one should receive a #SurpriseMedicalBill, especially when they have done all they can to receive in-network care. We will continue to work with Congress and the administration to create a more transparent, affordable and equitable health system.
I applaud the @BidenAdministration’s ruling on #SurpriseBilling, which will protect patients using an independent resolution process that focuses on affordability. This is a win for patients and a step toward building a more affordable and equitable healthcare system. 👇
Advancing data collection to better understand #HealthDisparities is a priority of mine. See how the All of Us Research Program is using health data to personalize #stroke prevention and treatment in people of all backgrounds. #HealthOfAmerica#JoinAllofUs https://t.co/KrYyY6gMSE
