Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator nominee Dr Oz’s opening statement before the Senate Finance Committee:
“We have a generational opportunity to fix our healthcare system and help people stay healthy for longer.”

Dr. Oz testified on the importance of health entitlements and healthy habits as Mr. Trump tries to “Make America Healthy Again” through Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Trump’s pick for CMS administrator told the Senate Finance Committee that America is struggling with soaring health care costs and higher obesity rates than other countries. “We have a generational opportunity to fix our health care system and help people stay healthy for longer,” he said in his opening remarks. The 64-year-old was a respected heart surgeon who turned into a popular TV pitchman. Now he has his sights on overseeing health insurance for about 150 million Americans enrolled in Medicare, Medicaid or Affordable Care Act coverage.

Dr. Mehmet Oz says President Trump will “love and cherish” Medicare and Medicaid but thinks reforms are needed to eliminate waste and fraud and sustain the government insurance programs. Dr. Oz, the nominee for administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, also believes Americans need to make healthier choices so the U.S. can reverse an obesity crisis that is reducing life expectancy and fueling billions of dollars in unneeded spending.

“We have a generational opportunity to fix our health care system and help people stay healthy for longer,” Dr. Oz told the Senate Finance Committee at his confirmation hearing. “That’s why President Trump wants to love and cherish Medicare and Medicaid.”
