Give policy makers the tools, data and resources to effect care improvement and lower cost.
Helping the elderly with their medical issues should be approved.
It is important to use practices that have proven to work. Too many docs get into ways they gal back on. Drug companies have to much influence on prescribers.
Waiving the requirements would only allow the GOP to further chip away at the program in hopes of getting rid of it altogether. The standards and requirements are there for a reason. To make sure certain things are provided, at a minimum.
Yes, but the ability to waive anything should be extremely constrained to ensure misuse is impossible. CMS leadership is known to abuse any loophole...
Same standard Bill author. Let's have some facts on what you want to do. What are the cost? Who does it effect and how they are affected.
Absolutely NO. We don't need the PACE program, we need the govt to stay out of our healthcare. Stop getting between patients and their doctors. Period.
Just another program to increase control of medical care. Stop!
The rising costs of healthcare have little to do with senior services and the meager programs available to them. The study should be directed more at hospital costs and pharmaceuticals costs than senior services. Those lucky enough to qualify for PACE are lucky enough to get the care they require. How about those who don't qualify but are too poor to benefit from care at home? How about family care givers who are not compensated for their time caring for a sick and elderly parent? Those are the people who need studies.
Smaller less power for our government. Need to see what their spending our money on.
