Medicare’s dialysis benefit has improved & saved the lives of millions of Americans with kidney disease. On the 50th anniversary of this program, as chairs of the Congressional Kidney Caucus, Larry Bucshon, MD & I are dedicated to improving care for this critical population.

Thank you Rep. Suzan DelBene and Larry Bucshon, MD for recognizing the 50th anniversary of this program and for your continued work towards improving #kidneycare.

.U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D. and I passed a bill ensuring that kidney transplant recipients can afford medicine needed so their bodies don’t reject transplants. Starting Jan 1st, immunosuppressive drugs will be covered by Medicare for the rest of a patient’s life, not just a few years.
