MethodologyDME Scammer Prevention Act of 2026
This bill aims to crack down on fraud and scams involving durable medical equipment (DME)—items like wheelchairs, oxygen tanks, and diabetic supplies that Medicare and insurance companies pay for. It would likely strengthen oversight and penalties for companies and individuals who submit false claims or overcharge for this equipment, protecting both taxpayers and patients who rely on these devices. The legislation targets a significant problem where fraudsters exploit the medical equipment system to steal millions in government and insurance funds.
Abolish the CMMI Act
This bill would shut down the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation, a federal agency that tests new ways to deliver healthcare and control costs within the Medicare and Medicaid programs. The proposal would affect millions of Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries, healthcare providers, and researchers who currently participate in or benefit from the center's pilot programs and studies. Eliminating this agency would end ongoing experiments designed to improve patient care and reduce government healthcare spending.
HSA’s For All Act
This bill would expand access to Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) by allowing more people to open and use them, potentially removing restrictions that currently limit who can participate in these tax-advantaged savings accounts for medical expenses. Workers and individuals would benefit by having greater flexibility to save money tax-free for healthcare costs like doctor visits, prescriptions, and medical equipment. The changes would likely affect how people pay for healthcare out of pocket and could reduce the tax revenue collected by the federal government.
Punishing Health Care Fraudsters Act
This bill would increase criminal penalties for people and companies that commit fraud in the health care system, such as billing for services that were never provided or overcharging insurance programs. The stricter punishments would apply to doctors, hospitals, insurance companies, and other health care providers caught cheating the system. The goal is to deter health care fraud and protect patients and taxpayers from losing money to dishonest practices.
Delivering On Government Efficiency in Spending Act
This bill aims to reduce wasteful spending across federal government agencies by requiring them to find cost savings and operate more efficiently. It would likely establish new oversight mechanisms or requirements for how agencies budget and spend taxpayer money, affecting both government employees and the public services they provide. The bill has been sent to multiple committees to review different aspects of government spending and operations.
Apples to Apples Comparison Act of 2025
The bill would require health insurance plans to present their costs and coverage options in a standardized, easy-to-compare format so consumers can directly evaluate different plans side-by-side. This would help patients and workers shopping for health insurance understand what they're paying for and make better decisions about which plan works best for their needs. The measure affects insurance companies, employers who offer health benefits, and anyone purchasing or comparing health insurance plans.
National POW/MIA Memorial and Museum Act
This bill would establish a national memorial and museum dedicated to American prisoners of war and service members missing in action throughout U.S. military history. The facility would serve as a place for the public to learn about and honor the experiences of these service members and their families. Veterans, military families, and the general public would be the primary groups affected by this new institution.
Maritime Fuel Tax Parity Act
This bill would make the federal fuel tax rules the same for ships and boats as they are for trucks and cars on highways. Currently, maritime vessels pay different fuel taxes than land-based transportation, and this legislation aims to create equal treatment across all transportation types. The change would affect shipping companies, barge operators, and other maritime businesses that use fuel for commercial purposes.
Flexible Savings Arrangements for a Healthy Robust America Act
This bill would likely expand or modify tax-advantaged savings accounts that help people set aside money for healthcare and other expenses without paying taxes on those savings. The changes would probably make these accounts more flexible by allowing people to use the money for a broader range of purposes or to contribute more money each year. Workers and families would benefit by having more ways to save money on a tax-free basis for their health and financial needs.
Freedom from Government Competition Act of 2025
This bill would restrict federal agencies from competing with private businesses by requiring the government to stop or reduce certain commercial activities it currently operates. The legislation aims to protect private companies from having to compete against government-run services, affecting federal employees who work in these commercial operations and businesses in industries like printing, data processing, and other services the government currently provides. The bill has been sent to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform for review.
