Max Baucus: “A question designed for Senators to have more information about the basic point the Senator was talking about…”

On the recordAugust 1, 2007
A question designed for Senators to have more information about the basic point the Senator was talking about, crowd-outs, which the Senator understands is people on private insurance leaving private health insurance to go to the program that Congress may have enacted. Does the Senator have any idea--I found this very interesting--when Congress passed the Medicare Modernization Act, which included Part D drug benefits--I don't know whether the Senator voted for that bill. I assume the Senator voted for that.
