Dr. Oz's Potential Impact on Medicare and Medicaid Under Trump

President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Dr. Mehmet Oz to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, raising questions about potential changes to Medicare and Medicaid. Oz has shown support for Medicare Advantage, a privatized option, which could become the default, potentially limiting care options. His views on Medicaid are less clear, but some Republicans advocate for budget cuts and work requirements. Critics warn these changes could increase costs and reduce access to specialized care.
