Ryan Commends House Passage of Reforms to Strengthen Medicare

March 26, 2015 - Press Releases

WASHINGTON Upon passage of H.R. 2, the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act, Ways and Means Chairman Paul Ryan (R-WI) issued the following statement:

“This is a firm step toward patient-centered health care. After years of manufactured crises, this bill will give doctors the certainty they need and seniors the security they deserve. We have a lot more work to do to save Medicare, but this plan will strengthen the program. It will put our focus on the long-term reforms we need. And I‘m happy to support it.“
