Richmond Statement on GOP Abandoning Bipartisan, Permanent “Doc Fix” | 2014-03-14 | 2014 | 2014-03 | Democrat | House | LA | Cedric Richmond | R000588 | richmond.house.gov | legacy | Washington DC -- Congressman Cedric Richmond (LA-02) issued the following statement regarding H.R. 4015, a bill which would have repealed the Medicare sustainable growth rate and improved Medicare payments for physicians and other professionals: “I am disappointed that after finding a bipartisan fix for Medicare physician payments, House Republicans have decided to sacrifice this achievement in favor of a fleeting attempt to circumvent the Affordable Care Act,” said Rep. Richmond (LA-02) “ Doctors, patients, and industry experts all agree that our current payment formula is flawed and I a call on my peers in the House to stop playing politics with the health and well-being of our seniors, and work with us to find a workable solution to our problem.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
