WASHINGTON, DC –The National Coalition on Health Care (NCHC) put forward a set of detailed, bipartisan policy recommendations to improve chronic care in a letter yesterday to Finance Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch (R-UT), Ranking Member Ron Wyden (D-OR), and Senators Johnny Isakson (R-GA) and Mark Warner (D-VA), who have been appointed to lead the Committee’s chronic care working group. The letter was submitted in response to a call for health care stakeholder input to inform the working group’s efforts.
“Congress should act now to ensure that Medicare policy is aligned with and builds upon what is already working in the private sector, the states and successful federal initiatives,” wrote NCHC President and CEO John Rother in the letter.
