Sherrod Brown: “How a Department gives a waiver to one guy to do this and not that. I think Mr. Scully is a man of integrity, but I do…”

“How a Department gives a waiver to one guy to do this and not that. I think Mr. Scully is a man of integrity, but I do not think the system is quite right that would allow somebody to look for a job, run this Medicare system that has 40 million beneficiaries, that has got about, I think, about $300 billion roughly running through that system. He runs it. The last 6 months he said he is leaving. He is talking about companies that have a major interest in Medicare while looking for a job, and then he is helping to write the Medicare bill that will affect those companies in the agency he runs. I do not know what the waiver is all about. I hope he comes and tells us sometime.”
