One of the largest holes in the Medicare system is that it does not currently cover most dental, vision, or hearing expenses.
Doing without dental coverage frequently leads to preventable health problems.
I intend to discuss legislation I have recently introduced which will provide beneficiaries with access to comprehensive dental, vision, and hearing services.
Last year, we came together with MACRA. That landmark reform repealed the SGR and already started the process of transforming how we try to pay physicians under Medicare.
