Examining health care affordability for seniors

On Thursday, the Energy & Commerce Subcommittee on Health and the Ways and Means Committee will hold joint hearings on "Lowering Health Care Costs for All Americans: An Examination of Health Insurance Affordability."

What's next: On the docket is the Improving Seniors' Timely Access to Care Act, bipartisan legislation that the CAP has championed. 

  • If passed, the bill would reduce burdensome prior authorization requirements that interfere with pathology services, improving care for millions of older adults.

CAP members can contact their representatives and encourage them to support the Improving Seniors’ Timely Access to Care Act.
