Modern Healthcare: HHS secretary nominee Rep. Tom Price (R-Ga.) avoided specifics on potential replacements for the Affordable Care Act on Tuesday during his confirmation hearing before the Senate Finance Committee.
Price answered questions for nearly four hours, with some of the same tensions seen during a courtesy hearing last week before the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee. Democratic senators asked about his financial stakes in healthcare companies and his ideas for repealing and replacing the ACA. As in the previous hearing, Price said everyone should have access to care, but did not say they should be guaranteed coverage.
