US Senate confirms Trump's Medicare and Medicaid nominee Mehmet Oz

  • The U.S. Senate confirmed Dr. Mehmet Oz as the head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services with a party-line vote of 53-45.
  • Critics, including Robert Weissman of Public Citizen, argue that Oz is profoundly unqualified and may lead to harmful cuts in Medicare and Medicaid.
  • Oz has expressed support for work requirements for Medicaid but aims to improve healthcare through innovative methods like integrating artificial intelligence.
  • The confirmation has raised concerns among groups like AFSCME that critical healthcare services for millions could be jeopardized under his leadership.
