WASHINGTON -- Senate Finance Committee Chairman William V. Roth, Jr. (R-DE) sent a letter to Finance Committee members announcing his intention to release a Chairman's mark on Medicare reform shortly after the August recess.
"I expect to propose significant reforms to the Medicare program, including a prescription drug benefit. To that end, I will be preparing the mark over the next several weeks and would appreciate receiving from each of you a detailed sense of your views and priorities with respect to needed changes in the Medicare program. In this process, I also intend to consider the views of the Administration, as outlined in the President's plan recently forwarded to Congress," Roth stated in the letter.
A copy of the letter is attached.
