This week, HAP and #PAhospital leaders joined @SenMcCormickPA to highlight federal support needed to ensure they can remain anchors in their communities. Thank you to Sen. McCormick for taking part in this important dialogue and to the hospital leaders who shared perspectives!
Good discussion today with Pennsylvania hospital and health system leaders about the challenges facing health care across the Commonwealth, including workforce and access pressures, biomedical research funding, and implementation of the Rural Health Transformation Program.
That program was created through the Working Families Tax Cuts Act, which I was proud to support and see signed into law last year.
Their firsthand input matters as I work on these issues in Washington.

A new @ind_fisc_office brief shows that as PA saves money from #Medicaid losses, that cost will shift to hospitals. And coverage losses have already started. Learn why we support state budget investments that support hospital in keeping communities strong: haponline.org/News/HAP-News-…
