Bill Summary
The federal government would be required to track and report how much money it spends on primary care services (like doctor visits and preventive care) through programs like Medicare and Medicaid. Additionally, the bill would create a working group to study primary care spending and develop recommendations for how federal health programs can better support primary care doctors and services. These changes aim to give policymakers better information about primary care costs and help improve access to basic medical services for patients.
