Statement from CMS Administrator Seema Verma on President Trump Signing an Executive Order on Improving Price and Quality Transparency in American Healthcare to Put Patients First

“Today’s announcement exemplifies President Trump’s commitment to ensuring Americans have the right to know the price and quality of their healthcare,” said CMS Administrator Seema Verma. “Since day one, this Administration has made great strides in increasing transparency to foster competition in our healthcare system to keep care affordable, and empowering patients to make informed healthcare decisions. I am excited to implement these bold reforms to transform our healthcare system into one that delivers affordable and accessible healthcare, and puts American patients first.”
