James Comer would work to restore healthcare marketplace competition, expand access to high-quality care, and end one-size-fits-all healthcare policies.

We must restore competition in the marketplace, expand access to high-quality care and end the one-size-fits-all approach taken in recent years.

Congress.gov lists H.R.10545 as Public Law No. 118-158. Its health division extended Community Health Center Fund, National Health Service Corps, rural hospital/ambulance Medicare supports, Medicare outreach/enrollment funding, telehealth flexibilities, and Acute Hospital Care at Home through March 31, 2025.

A same-term enacted law that Comer supported temporarily expanded or preserved access to care, including telehealth, rural Medicare supports, community health centers, and provider-shortage programs. It does not amount to a broad restoration of health marketplace competition or a permanent end to one-size-fits-all health policies.

This was a concrete House effort aligned with marketplace competition and non-uniform coverage options, but it stopped after House passage and did not become law in the 118th Congress.
