Before I yield to the gentleman from Georgia, Dr. Gingrey, for our close, I just want to remind him of a statement by the chairman. Representative Stark of the Ways and Means Subcommittee on Health, during the debate and passage of PPACA, he called the establishment of the board ``a dangerous provision that sets Medicare up for unsustainable cuts.'' We should be reminded of that. At this time, I yield the balance of my time to one of the authors of the legislation, a distinguished member of the Health Subcommittee and a doctor, the gentleman from Georgia, Dr. Gingrey.
