I think the steps that CMS and the other Federal agencies have taken in this area are really important.

We are here today to discuss the ways in which promising new technologies may be harnessed by the healthcare industry to provide better quality care, inform healthcare research, and empower Americans to better maintain their own health.

Reading the testimony today, I was impressed by how much progress we are making towards a more technologically advanced health care system.

Again, Ms. Greenleaf, isn't it true that an income inconsistency does not necessarily mean an individual is getting too much or too little financial assistance?

It is simply unacceptable that CMS does not yet have the internal controls necessary to validate Social Security numbers, citizenship, national status, income, and employer-sponsored coverage.

The ACA is working. The results are in.

An inconsistency on an application should not be a surprise.

The reason that I am in public service is because my hope was that I could say that I helped provide health care to all Americans.

I am just so frustrated by the fact that the Republicans are ignoring all this in order to score political points.

If the consumer includes a hyphen in their name on their application which does not appear in Federal databases, that could generate an inconsistency.

We get it. Republicans don't like Obamacare. In fact, they won't recognize one single benefit from the law, and they predicted one disaster after another, and none of them have come true.

It is not a surprise anymore that my Republican colleagues never want to talk about the good news with the Affordable Care Act.
