This week, the House Energy and Commerce Committee sent this letter to HHS Secretary Sebelius questioning her short-lived attempt to expand now-available Medicare coverage for advance care planning.
The Committee charges that "the secrecy surrounding their inclusion in the final rule indicates that this was a political maneuver designed to avoid public scrutiny and comment." The committee further charges that "if a regulation based on a proposal that could not be enacted through the legislative process can be inserted into a final rule without a chance for any public comment, then there appear to be no limits to the power delegated to you as Secretary under the PPACA." There will be a hearing next week exploring this further.
