The Energy and Commerce Committee is actively working to advance these bills to the House floor. Together, these bills represent efforts to develop meaningful, long-term solutions to challenges facing providers and patients. The KIDNEY Remote Monitoring Act expands access to remote monitoring and care for Medicare beneficiaries with end stage renal disease, eliminating costly appointments and ensuring they can receive the care they need in the comfort of their home. The Ensuring Community Access to Pharmacist Services Act provides for Medicare coverage of pharmacist-administered tests for common respiratory illnesses, such as influenza, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), strep throat, and COVID-19. “I have been a longtime advocate for a health care system that prioritizes effective, accessible care and ensures patients receive help from providers they know and trust, when and where they need it,” said Schneider. “As our health care system becomes increasingly expensive and complex, these bills will help cut through the red tape and focus on what matters most — ensuring seniors receive the care they need and deserve. I will continue working to advance these bills through Congress and support commonsense solutions to lower health care costs and expand access to care.” | 1 | 2026-09-16T09:43:13Z | 2026-09-16T09:44:22Z |
