Health Care Innovation

Not only is continued invention necessary for expanding our prosperity, but it is also key for mitigating problems such as global climate change or finding new technologies and treatments for troubling health conditions. Take the state and municipal lawsuits being filed against energy companies as an example. When announcing his ...

Nearly eight in 10 Americans worry “a great deal” or “a fair amount” about the availability and affordability of health care, according to polling from Gallup. So it’s surprising that the Republican Party’s platform this year doesn’t devote much space to the topic. It’s even largely silent on the Biden-Harris administration’s ...

Few likely noticed when the Biden administration announced a “voluntary Part D Premium Stabilization Demonstration” late last month. The initiative aims to “test” whether a new approach to reducing premiums for Medicare prescription drug plans will “increase the efficiency and economy of services” under the program — at least according to the ...

The selection of JD Vance as the Republican vice-presidential nominee has made many in the limited-government wing of the GOP squirm.

He’s gone from the junior senator from Ohio and the 96th by seniority to the top of the Republican ticket as Donald Trump’s running mate. Vance has branded himself as an “America First” conservative. ...

Democrats, including former President Barack Obama, have enthusiastically rallied around Vice President Kamala Harris as their presumptive presidential nominee. Voters will not be nearly as enthusiastic about her record on healthcare. Harris stands to President Joe Biden’s left on health policy. If elected, she would almost certainly drag the United States closer to a complete government ...

President Joe Biden’s clumsy, halting performance at the first presidential debate was nothing short of disastrous. But the substance of his remarks, especially on healthcare, is just as worrying. Take his defense of the Inflation Reduction Act’s price controls on insulin for Medicare Part D enrollees. As the president put it, “We brought ...

In the lead-up to last month’s presidential debate, pundits predicted that President Biden would lean into his standard defense of his former boss’s signature healthcare legislation in a bid to attract young voters, whose lack of enthusiasm for the president has the White House worried. It’s safe to say that Team Biden ...
