Congress Ought To Dismantle The Healthcare Deep State

Congress Ought To Dismantle The Healthcare Deep State

The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) has been a controversial agency since its inception under Obamacare. Critics argue that the agency has consistently failed to deliver on its promises of reducing taxpayer spending and improving patient care. With the recent appointment of Dr. Mehmet Oz as the head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, there is an opportunity to reevaluate the role of CMMI and potentially eliminate it altogether.

Over the past decade and a half, CMMI has cost taxpayers billions of dollars with little to show in terms of improved outcomes for patients or providers. Despite its lofty goals, only a small fraction of CMMI’s payment models have met the agency’s own criteria for expansion. In fact, the agency has increased net federal spending by over $5 billion, far outweighing any potential cost savings.

One of the most concerning aspects of CMMI is its overreach in imposing nationwide mandatory payment models on healthcare providers and patients. Rather than conducting small-scale tests as originally envisioned by Congress, CMMI has attempted to implement sweeping changes to Medicare and Medicaid without proper oversight. This includes a failed proposal under the Obama administration to drastically alter Medicare Part B reimbursement for medicines, which would have had significant negative impacts on oncology clinics and cancer patients.

It is clear that major reforms are needed for Medicare and Medicaid, but these reforms should be driven by Congress rather than unelected bureaucrats at CMMI. With the agency projected to increase federal spending by $1.3 billion over the next decade, eliminating CMMI could even help offset costs in the reconciliation bill.

In conclusion, it is time for the Trump administration, Dr. Mehmet Oz, and Congress to seriously consider ending CMMI and redirecting resources towards more effective and accountable healthcare initiatives. By doing so, we can ensure that taxpayer dollars are being used wisely and that patients receive the quality care they deserve.
