Text of Testimony on Behalf of American Enterprise Institute for House Subcommittee Hearing: 'The President's Health Care Law Does Not Equal Health Care Access' (PDF)
Scott Gottlieb, MD, Resident Fellow, American Enterprise Institute
[Opinion] June 19, 2014
"The last time that the commercial insurance industry tried to popularize these restrictive provider networks and closed drug formularies, was in the 1990s with the advent of closed HMOs. It led to a backlash that ultimately culminated in the introduction of the Patients Bill of Rights. Not this time. Narrow networks and drug formularies have been rendered politically acceptable as a result of the concessions made in the ACA. As a result, we will start to see these same approaches become far more prevalent in the commercial insurance market, and even Medicare."
