it's medicare part d. h.r. 6833 caps medicare part d and private health plans. that is a direct government price control on private companies. i'm a doctor. i'm also co-chair of the house kidney caucus. i have an acute understanding of how expensive prescription drugs are and the need for congress to act. however, i also understand that as a structural issue and simply slapping price controls on it will not actually solve the problem. this will only raise premiums and shift the cost to patients with other diseases. thankfully there is a better way, h.r. 19, the lower cost, more cures act, is a truly bipartisan solution to lower costs of all prescription drugs. including insulin. the bill caps out-of-pocket costs on prescription drugs and medicare part d for seniors. allows high deductible health plans to cover insulin before the deductible kicks in. increases low cost options by bringing more generic and biosimilar composition to the marketplace marketplace. and increases drug price transparency for patients. and the best part? every provision is bipartisan. so

as a result, cms has moved to terminate laguna honda from the medicare, medicaid program. now laguna honda is a large and complex organization. i know that given more time, the team could have shown compliance. none of the infractions found this week would have led determination had it not been for the organization running out of time to show compliance. importantly, laguna honda did not lose its license and remains a licensed skilled nursing facility. but we take these findings seriously and know that responding to them and working with our regulatory partners, laguna honda will be a stronger organization. we look forward to showing this to our regulatory partners in the near future as we begin the process of re-applying to the cms program. i want to end by acknowledging the hard work of laguna honda staff and show my gratitude to laguna honda patients and their families for entrusting us with their care. and now it's my pleasure to introduce the laguna honda chief executive officer michael phillips. thank you. >> good morning everyone. thank you, mayor london breed and t

more than 16 million americans are enrolled in medicare. that would give medicare significance bargaining power to negotiate prices for all those americans so instead of supporting individual patients, to negotiate by themselves to require them to pay whatever price the drug companies sent, they would have that kind of representation to stand there with their fellow americans and negotiate those prices so that they would simply be fair. so today we also call on congress to make permanent the aca subsidies that are included in the american rescue plan. [applause] subsidies that are currently lowering insurance premiums for millions of americans and which are set to expire in december. more must be done. currently, there are 12 states in our nation that refuse to expand medicaid. for no reason other than petty partisan obstruction. as a result, 4 million people in our country are locked out of coverage. and that comes at the cost. for example, women who do not have health care coverage and are therefore less likely to have access duringpregna
