Healthcare (Executive Calendar)
The Senate held a discussion of healthcare costs. Senator Cassidy said healthcare expenses are too high and take money away from workers’ pay. He said his committee had passed a bill requiring doctors and hospitals to display their prices clearly, arguing that when patients know costs ahead of time they can choose cheaper care, which he said would create competition and lower prices. He also spoke in favor of giving families up to $2,000 in a health savings account to help pay for care.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
