Senate confirms Oz as head of CMS along party lines

The Senate voted 53-45 along party lines to confirm Oz.

The heart-surgeon-turned-celebrity-physician faced intense questioning by Democrats in the Senate Finance Committee. Oz often dodged providing specific answers, providing generalities.

CMS provides coverage for 68 million people on Medicare and 79 million people on Medicaid. Much of what Oz said aligned with the “Make America Healthy Again” agenda led by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

“Let’s be aggressive in modernizing our tools to reduce fraud, waste and abuse. This will stop unscrupulous people from stealing from vulnerable Americans and extend the life of the Medicare trust fund,” Oz said in his Senate hearing.
