At its core, Medicare is a fulfillment of a commitment to the health security of the American people.
We are trying to figure out where we are going as a country and how we can turn our investments and innovation into sustainable models moving forward.
The work that the Innovation Center is doing will help us become more efficient and achieve our shared goals of containing costs.
A strong Medicare doesn't mean we turn the program over to the insurance industry, and it doesn't mean we shift more costs on to the beneficiaries.
