Rep. Ferguson: Health Care Solutions Should Focus on Patients

Targeted News Service (Press Releases)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24 -- Rep. A. Drew Ferguson, R-Ga., issued the following news release:

Congressman Drew Ferguson (R-Ga.) today spoke at a Committee on the Budget hearing on The Failures of Obamacare: Harmful Effects and Broken Promises. During his question and answer period, Ferguson spoke about his own experiences as a health care provider and asked about barriers to care.

"As a provider this is something I have lived with every single day," said Ferguson. "We are spending more time on regulations than on health care delivery."

"There are many barriers to care for those who are trapped in the cycle of poverty," said Ferguson. "I hope that as we move forward to identify solutions that we are able to drive the conversation back to the two most important people in the room: the health care provider and the patient."
