Healthy America
Restoring the Health of America and Its Rural Communities

- Eliminate Fraud in the Healthcare System
Healthy America
Healthy America works to create policies that give all Americans full agency in decisions that affect their health and well-being. Decisions about what, how, and where care is received should be made by patients and doctors, not by politicians, bureaucrats, and medical industry. AFPI’s healthcare policies put the patient and doctor in control, dignify life, promote better health and medical outcomes, improve access, and lower costs for Americans.

Medicare’s Hospital Markup Is Costing Seniors
Medicare pays hospital-owned clinics up to 670 percent more than independent physician offices for the exact same care. In early July, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) proposed ending that markup for common imaging services without contrast, including X-rays, MRIs and ultrasounds, by paying certain hospital-owned clinics the same rates as independent physician offices. The reform would lower costs for America’s seniors while saving beneficiaries and taxpayers $260 million in 2027 and $7.2 billion over the next 10 years.
