Mr. President, the majority manager is not here. I have been designated to be the opposition manager for the half hour that we have. In a short time, I will delegate that time to the senior Senator from Massachusetts.

Harry Reid

As we begin this half hour on our side and half hour on the other side, I extend my appreciation and that of the whole Democratic caucus to Senator Kennedy for leading the opposition, literally, to this measure. He has had a lot of help. I have sat through days of speeches on this matter and I have been impressed with the quality of the speeches, really, on both sides. Especially on our side, I have been impressed with Senator Kennedy, and I will mention a number of names who I thought did such a wonderful job: Senators Bayh, Boxer, Cantwell, Clinton, Dayton, Dodd, Harkin, Pryor, Nelson of Florida, and Graham of Florida. What a loss it is going to be to this institution and our country that this fine man is going to no longer be part of the Senate after 1 year.

Mr. President, on the question of time, we have the last 5 minutes. That will probably be leader time. The leader, obviously, ought to have whatever time he needs.

Ted Kennedy

When we talk and bring out these charts, as we have in the past few days, this is the very instance about which we are talking. It did not have to be this way. This is just an illustration of the overall challenges of this legislation and a reason that it should not pass the Senate.

Mr. President, I thank Senator Kennedy. We have had a long and quite illuminating debate over the past week on one of the most important issues that our Nation faces; that is: Shall we turn a program which for 40 years has protected older Americans and disabled Americans against illness into a program which promotes wellness?

In order to do that, we understand that fundamentally we will have to make access to prescription drugs affordable, comprehensive, universal, and reliable because prescription drugs are now fundamental to a preventive health care policy.

There is much to criticize about this legislation, and I intend to vote no. We have heard that at great length in recent days. Let me take a slightly different approach. I am assuming that this legislation is going to pass. The challenge will then be before us: What do we do next?

Let me suggest three things that we ought to do next. One is that we have to look realistically at the cost of this bill. As Senator Ensign said during last night's debate, the $400 billion figure is a mirage. This bill is going to cost substantially more than $400 billion. The Congressional Budget Office is estimating that in the second 10 years, it will be over $1 trillion.

What are the suggestions of how to deal with this reality? One of those suggestions is to reduce benefits. Another one is to set some type of a formula relating Medicare expenditures to general revenue, and then scaling back Medicare expenditures when they break through that barrier.

Of course, one of the things that we ought to have done in terms of cost is not start this year by passing a massive tax cut which added substantially to the Federal deficit and narrowed the range of realistic options that we have today.

This has been truly an amazing year for the Congress and the President. We started the year with a proposal for almost a $1 trillion tax cut. We reasserted our commitment to fight and win a war against terror in Afghanistan. We started a war in Iraq. We have seen surging Federal Government expenditures in the nondefense area, and now on what will likely be the last day of the session, we conclude by passing a $400 billion unfunded new entitlement.

My answer to the question of cost, at least a significant part of it, lies in the fact that in this bill we are failing to sanction the use of the tremendous marketing influence which the Federal Government, through the Medicare Program, can have over the cost of prescription drugs.

Just as we did over 10 years ago -- and the Presiding Officer's colleague, Senator Murkowski, was a prime sponsor of this legislation -- we authorized the VA to negotiate to get the best prices it could for American veterans. I think the high priority for 2004 should be to give to the administrator of the Medicare Program similar authority.

Second, I think we need to pass a Patients' Bill of Rights. If we are going to be herding millions of older Americans into various forms of health management, we have a responsibility to give them some assurance as to what the standards of that access to health care will be.

Third, we have a strange provision in here for the distribution of prescription drugs. That is, we use private insurance programs rather than traditional Medicare. It would be like having to get a private insurance program to get anesthesiology or any of the other services that have traditionally been provided through Medicare.

Then, in order to encourage -- I would say more than encourage -- mandate the maximum number of Americans participating in that program, we say there has to be at least one prescription-only insurance provider in the region and, second, then a preferred provider organization, essentially a variant of an HMO, in the region. It is only if both of those fail, there is not one or more drug-only insurance plan or a PPO, only under those circumstances will a person be able to consider using standard fee-for-service Medicare as the means of getting their prescriptions.

It is ironic that in another part of this bill, which is going to create a demonstration project on the totality of Medicare, we line up all of the choices side by side, including staying in traditional fee for service, which over 85 percent of Americans are electing to do, and then choose on an equal basis, as we do in the Federal health insurance program. We do not have to wait until all of the other choices have been rejected, because they are not being provided, and then drop back into a Blue Cross/Blue Shield-type fee for service.

We ought to do the same thing with prescription drugs. If we are going to have what I think is a rather irrational program -- incidentally, the prescription drug-only proposal is not in existence in any other area of American health care. A person cannot buy that through the Federal health care system. A person cannot buy it through their employer system. The reason they cannot buy it is because no insurance company is providing it. That ought to tell us something about what they think of the management and fiscal implications of providing a drug-only prescription plan.

At least we should not require our oldest citizens to go through a so-called fallback process. We should allow older citizens to assess all of the options at the same time and make the decision they consider to be in their best interest.

As I conclude this long debate, I urge that the agenda of cost, patients' rights, and providing the more rational process for elderly determinations as to how they will receive their drugs be the starting point of the agenda for reform next year.

Chuck Grassley

First, I very much appreciate the passion of the opposition. Hopefully, they will look back on this day and come to the conclusion that we have not only provided prescription drugs for seniors as the first improvement in Medicare in 38 years and the strengthening of Medicare that follows it, but that we are also in the process of giving baby boomers an alternative Medicare Program, if they would so choose.

The basis of such legislation is the right to choose for seniors. No one is forced to do anything. We will give those baby boomers a program that is much closer to the health insurance they have in the places from which they retire.

Regardless, there are two classes of people covered today or not covered today with prescription drugs that we are emphasizing. For low- income people, too often our seniors are choosing between heat and prescription drugs, particularly in the cold areas of the country, or between food and prescription drugs. This legislation is going to lessen the chances that low-income people are going to have to make such choices.

The other group of people are those who have catastrophically high prescription drug costs. There is heavy subsidy and help in this bill for those two categories of people. Those are significant categories of people.

Also, we are doing something for everybody in this legislation from the standpoint that for the first time there will be in place mechanisms to dramatically negotiate down the price of drugs. That is obviously going to help the people who voluntarily choose to go into these plans, but the extent to which that is going to have an impact on everybody, old or young, is very important because all I hear from opponents of this bill is that we do not do anything to help cut down on the costs of drugs.

Remember when Medicare was enacted 38 years ago, the practice of medicine was to put everybody into the hospital. Today, the practice of medicine -- and a lot of the thanks can go to prescription drugs -- is to keep people out of hospitals and out of operating rooms. So people who cannot afford drugs, who go to the doctor very sick, are going to not only end up in a place they do not want to go, because people would rather not go to hospitals, rather not go to operating rooms. It is going to save our programs a lot of money, both private and public payment programs, for doctors and hospitals, when we can have people go into programs where they can get prescription drugs and keep their health up so they do not go to the hospital.

So we are bringing Medicare and the practice of medicine into the 21st century. In strengthening and improving Medicare, we are doing today exactly what we would be doing if we were writing a Medicare Program in the year 2003 as opposed to the year 1965.

I would like to spend just a little bit of time counteracting the arguments that are used against this bill by those who say we are not doing enough for low-income people. In fact, this bill is coming back from conference doing better for low-income people than when it went into conference.

One of those major changes that were made, not only at the behest of the House of Representatives but also at the behest of a lot of people in this body, probably more prominent in the Democratic Party than in the Republican Party, was to make sure the category of people we call dual eligibles -- those low-income seniors who are already on Medicare but also qualify for Medicaid -- is to put all of those into the Medicare Program so we didn't have an inequality. Maybe it was not a very big inequality but at least there was some inequality from one State to another State because of the Federal-State partnership in Medicaid that enables the State legislatures in some States to maybe set up a little different program -- a little more rich, a little less rich -- than what might be done in another State.

So dual eligibles are in this bill because of the demands of mostly Democrat Senators and people in the House of Representatives. That is something I didn't believe should be done, but I supported it because that was a necessary compromise. But now I find people who were advocating that position complaining about the legislation. So I want to tell them how wrong they are or how, if they are right just a little bit, they are right in such an insignificant way that it is immaterial because that ought to be seen as something that results from something they wanted us to do in this legislation.

This conference report, then, contains a generous drug benefit for these dually eligible seniors. There is, first of all, no donut hole for low-income Medicare beneficiaries. Let's get this clear. Let me make it clear. People on that side of the aisle are complaining about a donut hole. But for low-income people there is no donut hole. The bill guarantees all 6 million dual eligibles access to prescription drugs.

Under our conference report, dual eligibles will have better access through Medicare, especially since State Medicaid programs are increasingly imposing restrictions on patients' access to drugs, and that is what brings about greater inequity from State to State. Since States are in a budget crunch, forced to do that, some dual eligibles might be treated less generously in one State as opposed to another, but when they are all under the Federal Medicare Program, that will not be the case.

Further, States have the flexibility to provide coverage for classes of drugs, including over-the-counter drugs, that are not now covered by the Medicare Program. This bill ensures appeal rights for dual eligibles. Under the agreement, dual eligibles will maintain appeals rights like those in the Medicaid Program. The dual eligibles are a fragile population and I think, because of the conference report as opposed to either bill in its original form, they are taken care of better in this bill. The conference report recognizes and provides generous coverage to these 6 million people.

I hope we can take the summation of the AARP when they said this bill "is a historic breakthrough and [an] important milestone in the Nation's commitment to strengthen and expand health security for its citizens. . . ." I hope that will be conceived or considered as a toning down of the partisan opposition to this legislation.

Ted Kennedy

Mr. President, I oppose the Medicare bill before the Senate, but I want to express my understanding of the refinements of the Hatch-Waxman Act found in Title XI of the Medicare bill now before the Senate. I was deeply involved in the negotiations of these provisions in the conference. The Hatch-Waxman Act, which passed in 1984, reflects efforts by the Congress to promote two policy objectives: to encourage brand-name pharmaceutical firms to make the investments necessary to research and develop new drug products, and to enable competitors to bring cheaper, generic copies of those drugs to market as quickly as possible.

The Hatch-Waxman Act has worked very well for almost 20 years. It has provided the incentives necessary to bring the many medicines to market that have so transformed the shape of modern medical practice. And it has brought generic drugs to market faster than ever, saving consumers billions of dollars.

As the Federal Trade Commission has shown, however, in recent years both brand-name and generic drug companies have exploited certain aspects of the Hatch-Waxman Act to delay generic competition. The changes to the Hatch-Waxman Act found in Title XI represent refinements to the present system that will stop these abuses, will restore the original balance the law intended, and will ensure Americans more timely access to affordable pharmaceuticals.

Most significantly, the Hatch-Waxman provisions in this bill limit brand-name drug companies to only one 30-month stay of approval of generic drugs. This change will stop the multiple, successive 30-month stays that the Federal Trade Commission identified as having delayed approval of generic versions of several blockbuster drugs and cost consumers billions of dollars.

It also restructures how the 180-day generic exclusivity provisions work. The 180-day exclusivity gives a generic company 180 days during which it is the only generic competitor to the brand drug. The exclusivity is a very valuable incentive for generic companies. The exclusivity encourages generic companies to challenge patents that are likely invalid or not infringed and, because it goes to the first generic applicant to challenge a brand-name drug patent, it encourages challenges of those patents as soon as possible. These incentives mean that consumers will be able to enjoy the lower prices provided by generic companies sooner rather than later.

The Federal Trade Commission reports that the exclusivity has at times been parked through collusive agreements between brand and generic companies. Parking the exclusivity has blocked other generic companies from getting to market and has cost consumers billions of dollars. The Hatch-Waxman provisions in this bill are intended to prevent parking of the exclusivity. It does this by providing for several situations in which a generic company with the exclusivity forfeits the exclusivity, clearing the way for other generic companies to bring their products to market.

The Hatch-Waxman provisions in this bill also make the exclusivity available only with respect to the patent or patents challenged on the first day generic applicants challenge brand drug patents, which makes the exclusivity a product-by-product exclusivity rather than a patent- by-patent exclusivity, and the exclusivity is available to more than one generic applicant, if they all challenge patents on the same day.

Chuck Schumer

Thank you, Mr. President. Let my just say, before I ask my question, that I want to thank the Senator from Massachusetts, and the senior Senator from New Hampshire, for their leadership on this issue. The Senator from Massachusetts, as chair of the HELP Committee last year, took up the generic drug bill authored by the senior Senator from Arizona and myself, saw it through the HELP Committee, and managed its passage by the full Senate. This year, the senior Senator from New Hampshire approached me to work together to come up with the generic drug bill that served as the basis for what is in this bill, and he brought it through the HELP Committee, offered it as an amendment to the prescription drug bill in the Senate, where it was accepted 94-1, and defended it very ably in conference with the House. So, again, I would like to thank both distinguished chair and ranking member of the HELP Committee for their leadership on this issue.

As for my question, I understand that a generic applicant that has the 180-day exclusivity will forfeit the exclusivity if it has failed to market its product 75 days after certain events have happened with respect to itself or another generic applicant and with respect to each of the patents that gives the generic applicant its generic exclusivity. Is that correct?

Yes, I very much appreciate your question on this point. We do intend that a court decision like the one in the D.C. Circuit's 1999 decision in Teva v. Shalala -- a decision dismissing a declaratory judgment action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction because the patent owner has represented that the patent is not infringed -- will count as a court decision under the new "failure to market" provision. Under the failure to market provision, the conditions for forfeiture are intended to be satisfied when a generic company has resolved patent disputes on all the patents that earned the first-to- file its exclusivity. After a court decision such as that at issue in Teva v. Shalala, the patent owner is estopped from suing the generic applicant in the future and the patent dispute is resolved. So these sorts of decisions should be recognized as court decisions under the failure to market provision.

I'd also like to point out the importance of the declaratory judgment provisions that are in the Senate bill and are retained in modified form by the conferees in the conference report now before the Senate. Amendments made by this bill to both the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and Title 35 clarify that generic applicants may bring declaratory judgment acts to ensure timely resolution of patent disputes. These provisions authorize a generic applicant to bring a declaratory judgment action to obtain a judicial determination that a listed patent is invalid or is not infringed if the applicant is not sued within 45 days of having given notice to the patent owner and brand-name drug company that it is challenging the patent. This clarification of a generic applicants right to bring a declaratory judgment action is crucial to ensuring prompt resolution of patent issues, which is essential to achieve our goal of speeding generic drugs to market.

It's worth pointing out that the Hatch-Waxman Act has always provided that patent owners and brand drug companies can bring patent infringement suits against a generic applicant immediately upon receiving notice that the generic applicant is challenging a patent. The declaratory judgment provisions in Title XI of this bill simply level the playing field by making it clear that the generic applicant can also seek a prompt resolution of these patent issues by bringing a declaratory judgment action if neither the patent owner nor the brand drug company brings such a suit within 45 days after receiving notice of the patent challenge.

Certainly. The provision in Title 35 is intended to clarify that Federal district courts are to entertain such suits for declaratory judgments so long as there is a "case or controversy" under Article III of the Constitution. We fully expect that, in almost all situations where a generic applicant has challenged a patent and not been sued for patent infringement, a claim by the generic applicant seeking declaratory judgment on the patent will give rise to a justiciable "case or controversy" under the Constitution. We believe that the only circumstance in which a case or controversy might not exist would arise in the rare circumstance in which the patent owner and brand drug company have given the generic applicant a covenant not to sue, or otherwise formally acknowledge that the generic applicant's drug does not infringe.

The mere fact that neither the patent owner nor the brand drug company has brought a patent infringement suit within 45 days against a generic applicant does not mean there is no "case or controversy." The sole purpose of requiring the passage of 45 days is to provide the patent owner and brand-name drug company the first opportunity to begin patent litigation. Inaction within the 45-day period proves nothing, as there are tactical reasons why a patent owner or brand drug company might refrain from bringing suit on a patent within 45 days.

For example, the brand drug company might have several patents listed in the Food and Drug Administration's Orange Book with respect to a particular drug. It could be in the company's interest to bring suit within 45 days on one patent and to hold the others in reserve. The suit on one patent would automatically stay approval of the generic application until the lawsuit is resolved or the 30 months elapses. Holding the other patents in reserve would introduce uncertainty that could discourage generic companies from devoting resources to bring the generic drug to market and that would give the brand drug company a second opportunity to delay generic competition by suing the generic company for infringement of the reserved patents after the resolution of the initial infringement suit.

Or for patents on which no 30-month stay is available, the brand drug company could sit back to create uncertainty and similarly delay generic entry by delaying resolution of those patents. Or when generic applicants are blocked by a first generic applicant's 180-day exclusivity, the brand drug company could choose not to sue those other generic applicants so as to delay a final court decision that could trigger the "failure to market" provision and force the first generic to market.

In each of these and in other circumstances, generic applicants must be able to seek a resolution of disputes involving all patents listed in the Orange Book with respect to the drug immediately upon the expiration of the 45-day period. We believe there can be a case or controversy sufficient for courts to hear these cases merely because the patents at issue have been listed in the FDA Orange Book, and because the statutory scheme of the Hatch-Waxman Act relies on early resolution of patent disputes. The declaratory judgment provisions in this bill are intended to encourage such early resolution of patent disputes.

John McCain

Mr. President, I'd like to ask the Senator if it is the intent of this legislation that the declaratory judgment provisions in this bill, in particular, the change to Title 35, will be available immediately to help generic drug applicants who are now in federal court seeking declaratory judgments that listed drug patents are invalid or are not infringed by their product?

Ted Kennedy

I agree with the distinguished Senator from Arizona. It is clearly our intent that, under these provisions, courts considering jurisdictional challenges to declaratory judgment actions brought by generic drug companies should apply the standards set forth in this bill to such challenges in any case pending (either in the trial court or on appeal) at the time of enactment in order to resolve patent issues as soon as possible and to clear the way for quicker generic entry.

John McCain

I thank the Senator for his answer and for his leadership on these issues. His experience and technical expertise have been invaluable. I would also like to thank my friend, the senior Senator from New York, who has worked with me these many years on this legislation. His dedication to American consumers and his commitment to restoring fairness to the drug industry must be commended. The senior Senator from New Hampshire must also be recognized for leadership on this issue in his committee, in the Senate, and in the conference on this bill. I would also like to thank the staffs of all three of these Senators, who have worked tirelessly on behalf of this issue. I ask unanimous consent that a letter from Chairman Muris of the Federal Trade Commission about the value of the declaratory judgment provision in Title 35 be printed in the Record.

Mr. President, one of the criticisms that some have raised about the conference report is the provision that prevents the Department of Health and Human Services Secretary from interfering in the negotiations between private prescription drug plans, drug manufacturers, and pharmacies.

I also believe it is important that we clarify the purpose of the non-interference language. This language is not intended to pad the pockets of drug manufactures. It is not intended to pad the pockets of the insurance companies.

Chuck Grassley

The purpose of this bill is to ensure that Medicare beneficiaries get the benefit of negotiated discounts that the private sector is able to achieve. We want seniors, who today pay the highest prices, to have access to discounted prices. And we also don't want to see the situation we have today with Part B covered drugs. Isn't it true that the Federal Government dramatically overpays for the drugs that are currently covered under Medicare today?

Yes, that is true. The HHS Inspector General has been urging Congress to end these overpayments for years. The conference report addresses these overpayments, while ensuring fair reimbursements for oncologists and other affected physicians to ensure that patient care remains unaffected. Moreover, I think it is important that members of Congress understand the strong consumer protections that are in place to ensure that they receive access to an affordable drug plan, one that provides access to the prescription drugs that they need.

Isn't it also true that if a plan chooses to use a formulary, it must include at least two drugs in each therapeutic category or class, unless the category or class only has one drug and that the plan must use pharmacy and therapeutic committees that consist of practicing physicians and pharmacists to design their formularies?

Yes, this is true. It is also true that the Secretary is prevented from approving a drug plan that charges too high of a premium. The premium must reasonably and equitably reflect the costs of the benefits.

Yes, the same one. And I think it is also important to note that conference report has a requirement for a Government-backed fallback plan if fewer than two plans are available. This Government- backed plan is required to negotiate prices with drug manufacturers. And if the fallback plan is unable to negotiate good discounts on its own, then the Secretary will be able to intervene as appropriate to negotiate to achieve lower prices.

In addition, I also think it is important to note that the Congressional Budget Office has estimated that the net price increase for prescription drugs under this bill will be 3.5 percent. CBO also found that drug plans bearing full statutory risk levels are estimated to produce an overall higher cost savings of 20 to 25 percent for prescription drugs under this bill, as compared to the 12 to 15 percent that CBO believes is achieved by private prescription benefit managers today. According to CBO, prescription drug prices would be cheaper under this bill. I would like my colleagues to know that should CBO's estimates of the higher savings by drug plans in this bill prove to overestimate prescription drug savings to seniors, I intend to introduce legislation that will provide seniors with lower drug prices.

Yes, CBO estimates that under the conference report seniors will be offered average greater savings under the Senate bill. The price for prescription drugs will almost certainly be lower than the prices seniors who do not have drug coverage pay today.

Mr. President, I rise to engage the chairman of the Finance Committee in a colloquy regarding pending committee action with respect to the tax treatment of company-owned life insurance, COLI. Let me again express my appreciation for the efforts the chairman made on October 1 in securing the committee's unanimous consent to conduct a hearing on issues surrounding COLI and to mark up a COLI provision shortly thereafter.

I welcomed the opportunity the chairman provided in the committee hearing on COLI that occurred on October 23. By the end of that hearing, I believe committee members had a solid grasp of the legitimate problems that still remain after the numerous legislative reforms of COLI over the last 20 years.

Since the hearing, the chairman and I have worked toward the development of a COLI proposal that would garner the support of the broadest possible consensus in the committee and in the full Senate. I believe that last week we were close to an agreement on a proposal that responded to every legitimate criticism of COLI heard during the course of the October 23 hearing.

I regret that the crush of Finance Committee legislation on the Senate floor in October and November has so far prevented the chairman from scheduling a markup. Unfortunately, it is now clear that the markup agreed to on October 1 cannot before the end of this session of Congress.

Mr. President, the Medicare conference report, which includes a reform of the Part B drug payment system, includes significant payment reductions to providers of cancer care. I understand that Senator Grassley does not intend for these payment reductions to force efficient cancer clinics to close, jeopardizing access to care for thousands of cancer patients.

Chuck Grassley

That is correct, Senator. The Medicare conference agreement contains a number of significant reforms, which will save billions of dollars in overpayments from Medicare covered drugs, while also substantially increasing payments to physicians. I intend to preserve continued access to high-quality cancer care.

Many physicians depend on overpayments on Part B drugs to make up for inadequate practice expenses. Is it the intent of the Senator from Montana that physicians' practice expenses will be increased sufficient to ensure access to care?

Yes, that is my intent. And I am committed to monitoring this new payment system as it is implemented, in order to ensure access to high-quality cancer care.

Is it the intent that if this new payment system does not suffice to ensure access to care, that you will revisit the system and revise the payment methodology?

Finally, it is my understanding that practice expense increases for oncology are expected to be about $500 million in 2004, $600 million in 2005, and $560 million in 2006, as shown in the summary which I will submit for the Record. Is it your understanding that the payment expense increases will allow efficient cancer care providers to continue serving cancer patients and not close their doors?

Yes. I would also note that the Senator from Kansas, Mr. Brownback, has some concerns over this issue. He has been a forceful advocate for the oncology community. And while I think the package for cancer care is a fair one, I understand that he has some concerns.

Sam Brownback

I thank the chairman, both for his commitment to this legislaiton and for keeping my staff and me informed throughout the drafting of these provisions. I would note that from the time he first spoke on this issue during consideration of the tax bill the chairman has expressed his intent to, "ensure that seniors and their caregivers have adequate payment for, and continued access to, important cancer therapies." I would ask of the chairman, is it his intent that the changes to outpatient drug reimbursement in Sections 303 and 304 of this bill will not have a significantly adverse impact on access to cancer treatment?

The Senator from Kansas is correct. My commitment to cancer patients has not changed. Indeed, according to estimates from the Congressional Budget Office, this bill is expected to actually increase net payments to oncologists in 2004. Also, CBO estimates that the new Average Sales Price Reimbursement model, when coupled with the changes in practice expense reimbursement, will amount to net reductions to cancer care of $4.2 billion over the next 10 years.

I would like to thank my friends for the progress that was made in the conference. The bill passed by the Senate several months ago contained a net cut of $16 billion as a result of Part B drug payment reforms. The reduction in the Conference report before us is now $11.4 billion.

However, I would also note to my friend from Iowa that the Secretary of Health and Human Services is given the discretion to reduce reimbursements further based on studies preformed by the Inspector General of the Department. I would ask my friend if it was the intent of the conferees that any future adjustments to the reimbursements be based on average of prices available to and paid by a wide range of physicians in the marketplace.

Dianne Feinstein

Mr. President, I am concerned about the impact the Medicare conference report will have on low-income Medicare beneficiaries who are living with HIV/AIDS. I have heard a lot of opposition to this bill from the HIV/AIDS community. My concern is with their access to drug treatment therapy under the Medicare prescription drug benefit. Is it your understanding that the Medicare conference report will not prevent low-income Medicare beneficiaries who are living with HIV/AIDS from getting all the drugs they need through Medicare Part D?

That is correct, Senator. One of the things I am particularly proud about in this bill is the strong beneficiary protections that will ensure that all Medicare beneficiaries get access to the appropriate medicine they need. You know, Senator Grassley, that there are certain diseases and conditions -- like AIDS, and epilepsy -- where having access to just the right medicine is especially important.

Victims of HIV/AIDS are somewhat unique since the treatment for HIV/AIDS varies with the individual. To be clear, no low- income Medicare beneficiaries who have HIV/AIDS will be denied access to the drugs they need in Medicare Part D?

Exactly. The bill asks the US Pharmocopeia to develop model formularies with therapeutic classes that can't be gamed. Then we require drug plans to offer at least two drugs in each therapeutic class. And for drugs that treat AIDS, epilepsy, or mental illness, we would expect that plans would carry all clinically appropriate drugs.

I agree. And I am pleased with the backup protections in this bill. That if a plan doesn't carry or doesn't treat as preferred a drug needed by, say, a person with AIDS, a simple note from a doctor explaining the medical need for that particular drug could get that drug covered.

Will that apply to all covered drugs required by a person with HIV/AIDS and in all cases?

Max Baucus

That is correct. These beneficiary protections are crucial for these vulnerable Medicare beneficiaries. I would expect that the Secretary will take into account their special medication needs when he writes regulations on this provision and when he is evaluating plan bids. If a plan can't adequately ensure all of the proper medication for beneficiaries living with HIV/AIDS, epilepsy, and certain mental illnesses, that plan should not be doing business with Medicare.

Dianne Feinstein

I would like to quote from a letter I received from Secretary of Health and Human Services Tommy Thompson, the full text of which I will include for the Record. Secretary Thompson says, "I would not approve a plan for participation in the Part D program if I found that the design of the plan and its benefits, including any formulary and any tiered formulary structure, would substantially discourage enrollment in the plan by any group of individuals. If a plan, however, complies with the USP guidelines then it would be considered to be in compliance with this requirement. Thus, if a plan limited drugs for a group of patients (individuals living with HIV/AIDS) it would not be permitted to participate in Part D." Secretary Thompson goes on to say, "Under the Conference Report, the beneficiary protections in the Medicare drug benefit are more comprehensive than the protections now required of State Medicaid programs. This will ensure access to a wide range of drugs. For example, there are extensive information requirements so that beneficiaries will know the drugs the plan covers before they enroll in the plan. Beneficiaries can also appeal to obtain coverage for a drug that is not on their plan's formulary if the prescribing physician determines that the formulary drug is not as effective for the individual as another drug, or if there are adverse effects. As a result, access to all drugs in a category or class will be available to a beneficiary when needed." Is this your understanding as well?

Mary L. Landrieu

Mr. President. I have been listening to the debate over the past few days, and I think that a common theme on both sides of the aisle has been this is not a perfect bill. There are those on this side of the aisle who rightly say that this bill does not go as far as it could; that it doesn't focus enough of the assistance on low-income seniors and could do more to keep employers from reducing or eliminating benefits for their employees. Others have raised concerns about the fact that there is a $1,400 "doughnut hole" and an overly restrictive assets test that will mean less help for too many Americans. There are those on the other side of the aisle that have rightly said that this bill does not do enough to address the long-term solvency issues facing Medicare. They contend that this $400 billion expansion, without making additional structural reforms, puts Medicare on an unsure footing for the future. It is for these reasons that Members on both sides of the aisle have said they will vote against this bill.

Mary L. Landrieu

Many maxims have been used over the past few days to describe the choice before us. Some have said, "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush." Others have said, "Let us not make the perfect be the enemy of the good." Still others have said, "Something is better than nothing." I have spent the last 25 years in public service, and if there is one thing I have learned, it is that a true compromise is one from which no one side walks away completely happy. If there is anyone who knows that lesson better than I, it is the senior Senator from Louisiana, Senator Breaux. I have often said that if there is a deal to be had, Senator Breaux will find it. He has an amazing talent for bringing two sides together in a way that preserves the key principles of both. I think he has succeeded in doing that again here.

Going into the conference, Democrats insisted that the final bill must include the following: meaningful assistance to low income beneficiaries; providing Federal assistance to Medicare seniors on Medicaid, dual eligibles; strong Government fallbacks; and real incentives for employers to retain coverage. The conference agreement represents major victories in all four of these key areas.

First, and perhaps most importantly, beneficiaries with low incomes will get immediate assistance in paying for their drugs. The premium, deductible and coverage gap would be waived for people earning up to $12,123 a year, $16,362 per couple. Those making up to $13,470, $18,180 per couple will not have to pay a premium or be subject to a coverage gap and would only have a $50 deductible. What this means in real terms is that one-third of all Medicare beneficiaries, over 200,000 of which are from my State, will get immediate assistance to drugs at little to no cost to themselves. These are people who today have no help.

This bill also provides $88 billion in tax incentives to employers to encourage retaining existing retiree drug coverage. CBO estimates those incentives will greatly diminish the number of employers who will reduce or eliminate their coverage because of passage of this bill. It ensures that all beneficiaries will have access to drug coverage by providing a strong government fallback in the event that private plans do not provide adequate coverage in any particular region. Finally, it provides meaningful support to Medicare providers so that they can continue to care for our Nation's elderly.

These are major victories. I am, however, disappointed by some of the provisions that were ultimately included in this bill, most especially the asset test. I understand that the asset test in this bill is fashioned after asset tests used to determine a person's eligibility for Social Security Income (SSI) and Medicaid. I understand that it is, in fact, three times as generous as the asset tests used by those programs. Yet, in my view, further restricting eligibility for vital Government programs so as to separate out the near poor from the poor is a precedent that should be abolished, not furthered. I think the American public would be shocked to learn how restrictive these asset tests are.

In this bill, if a senior whose income is less than $12,123 a year has more than $6,000 in assets, they will no longer qualify for assistance with their premiums or deductibles. The proponents of the asset test claim that they are necessary to ensure that a person doesn't claim to have an income of $12,123 and at the same time have a vacation home in Florida and $50,000 in stocks. But these are not the people that these asset tests affect. Who they end up affecting is a widow who is living on her husband's $600 a month Social Security check, but just so happens to have a $10,000 life insurance policy or home full of furniture valued at $3,000. That is just not fair. While I am not able to change this policy here, I do intent to work to change it later.

Ten years have passed since this body was first presented with the need to reform Medicare. We have long recognized that the ways of medicine have changed. Medications and outpatient services have taken the place of intrusive surgeries and long-term hospitalization. We know that Medicare has not keep pace with those changes nor does it reflect the current needs of our seniors. Over the past 10 years, we have assembled task forces, engaged in numerous studies, held countless hearings and drafted several legislative proposals, but we have never gotten to where we are today, at the brink of passing a bill that will put us on the path of making reform a reality.

I think we must act now. In a time of rising deficits, it is unlikely we will have $400 billion or the political will to make these improvements any time in the near future. The seniors in my State are tired of waiting for the perfect bill. If we do not pass this bill this year, who knows how much more time will pass before we get to this point. It certainly won't be next year. If we had not reduced our surpluses by giving out tax cuts, perhaps we could have done more, but there is no sense in wondering what could have been. What we need to focus on now is what can be.

One year ago, I was in Louisiana running for re-election and I promised the people of Louisiana that while I would be with the President some of the time and I would be with the Democratic caucus some of the time, no matter what, I would be with the people of Louisiana 100 percent of the time. This bill is good for Louisiana. Ultimately, that is why I support it.

In Louisiana, one out of every two seniors has no prescription drug coverage. Today, 72-year-old Ethel Cernigliaro of Homer is one of them. With only her $727 a month Social Security check to depend on, Mrs. Cernigliaro finds a way to pay her utilities, buy groceries and still cover the $300 and more she pays each month for prescriptions. At this point, Mrs. Cernigliaro doesn't know all of the details of how this Medicare reform will help her, but she is certain of one thing: It has got to be better than what she has now. "I've been following it closely, and it is certainly encouraging to know someone is trying to do something," she said. This bill means seniors like Mrs. Cernigliaro will no longer be without assistance for the drugs they need to maintain their quality of life and health. She and the 200,000 seniors like her will, in most cases, pay no more than $5 a prescription for their medications. Because of this reform, no senior citizen in our State will be without some level of coverage for prescriptions.

What's more, this bill will deliver $551 million over the next 10 years in emergency assistance for Louisiana's hospitals, most of which are struggling to keep their doors open. It will provide $156 million in much needed assistance to Louisiana's doctors. Without this assistance, these doctors could no longer afford to care for Medicare patients. It will provide $25 billion in help for our Nation's rural communities, many of which are in Louisiana. This represents the largest, most comprehensive rural package ever passed by Congress. Finally, this bill provides for much-needed prevention services, including screening for heart disease and diabetes, which could have helped to save the lives of the nearly 10,000 Louisiana seniors who died of these diseases last year.

If this bill does not pass, the people of my State will go yet another year without these important interventions. I, for one, cannot ask them to wait. Since Medicare was first passed into law in 1965, it has been amended and modified hundreds of times. This comprehensive reform package is not the first, nor will it be the last. I look forward to working with my colleagues in the months and years to come to ensure that the Medicare program, and this new prescription drug benefit, will be all that it promises to be and more.

Mr. President, a vote in favor of this legislation, which is designed to add a prescription drug benefit to Medicare, is a very close call for me. There are some positive elements of this bill, and there are also some flaws about which I am very concerned. In weighing the good and the bad, however, I have decided to support this bill.

The final legislation will provide very generous prescription drug coverage for about one-third of the lowest income senior citizens and disabled Medicare beneficiaries who live in North Dakota. For those Medicare beneficiaries whose incomes are below 150 percent of the poverty level, they will receive a benefit that will cover nearly 95 percent of their drug costs.

However, for senior citizens with incomes above 150 percent of the poverty level, this prescription drug benefit will not be very attractive at all, in my judgment. There is a $35 per month premium that will increase over time, a $250 deductible that will grow to $445 by 2013, and a period of time when seniors' drug expenditures reach $2,250 and seniors will still be paying premiums but have no drug coverage at all. Only after spending a total of more than $5,100 would Medicare beneficiaries receive catastrophic coverage of 95 percent for prescription drugs.

If this prescription drug benefit was a mandatory program, I would vote against it. Because it is optional, I think many senior citizens with incomes above 150 percent of poverty will take a look at the benefit and decide it is not worth it. The one-third of our senior citizens with the lowest incomes will benefit from it.

In addition to providing generous coverage for the lowest income senior citizens, the other feature of this bill that I strongly support are the steps it takes to offer some fairness in Medicare's payments for rural hospitals, doctors and other health care providers.

Hospitals and physicians in rural States have found that their reimbursement rates under Medicare have put them at a serious disadvantage. If these lower reimbursement rates were to continue, the quality and access to health care delivered to rural citizens would diminish. Rural hospitals have to compete for the same doctors and nurses and use the same sophisticated medical equipment as urban hospitals, and yet their reimbursement rates have been dramatically lower. As a result, many of our North Dakota hospitals are in real financial trouble. This legislation begins the process of establishing some fairness in those reimbursement rates, and I strongly support that.

But there are also a number of provisions in this bill that I think are a mistake. First of all, this bill lacks provisions that would begin to contain the rising costs of prescription drugs. That is a dramatic failure. For most senior citizens, the problem with prescription drugs is the steep rise in the prices of those prescription drugs. Unfortunately, the majority party bowed to the pressure of the pharmaceutical industry and failed to put any real cost containment in this bill. That is a serious mistake.

In addition, this bill includes provisions that have nothing to do with adding a prescription drug benefit to the Medicare program but that have the potential to do harm. The Health Savings Accounts established by this bill are at best a costly tax shelter for the wealthy and at worst could drive up costs for the traditional insurance market. Likewise, this bill is cluttered up with subsidies to private insurers and a phony demonstration program that adds additional costs to Medicare and could undermine the Medicare program itself if these provisions are not adjusted in the future.

As I sifted through all of these provisions, I concluded that providing nearly total prescription drug coverage for one-third of our senior citizens with the lowest incomes is a very important objective to achieve. Add to that the improvement in the reimbursement rates to strengthen rural hospitals and health care providers, and I believe that these two features warranted support for the bill.

Again, this bill is a close call because I think those who have written it have created an optional program that is sufficiently unattractive to many senior citizens that they will elect not to sign up for this program.

That is, we need to add some real cost containment, fix the drug benefit so that senior citizens aren't paying premiums while they're getting no coverage, and dump the extraneous provisions that have nothing to do with adding prescription drug coverage to Medicare.

In summary, I am not pleased with this choice, but I know that if we do not commit the $400 billion that we have now set aside for Medicare prescription drug coverage in the coming 10 years, that funding may not be available in the future. And I know that we may not get another opportunity to fix the reimbursement rates for rural hospitals in the near future.

So I will vote for this bill, but I do so with some real regret because this bill could have been so much better.

I remind my colleagues that we have a national debt that exceeds $6.9 trillion. The legislation currently before us is part of a budget resolution and economic plan that will cause our debt to double over the next 10 years. Make no mistake about it, we will borrow every penny to pay this $394.3 billion bill. How ironic -- we are going to borrow money from Social Security to pay for seniors health care. And what do we get in return? Spotty drug coverage for senior citizens, millions of Americans who will lose their existing coverage, massive subsidies for HMOs, the first step toward the destruction of Medicare as we know it, and a larger fiscal noose around the neck of future generations. We can do much better and should go back to the drawing board.

Instead of providing seniors with the stable and affordable benefit they deserve, this bill forces seniors to maneuver a complex maze of premiums, deductibles and copayments for benefits that contain huge gaps in coverage. On top of their premiums, which will vary from region to region and plan to plan, seniors will get no help for the first $250 of their drug costs, pay 25 percent of costs from $251 to $2,250, pay all the costs from $2,251 to at least $5,100, and then pay a fifth of costs above $5,100. With a breakeven point of $810, many healthier Medicare beneficiaries will opt not to participate. Because of the $2,850 coverage gap, many of the sickest patients will have to ration care for months because even though they continue to pay premiums, they receive no government assistance. Furthermore, seniors better not get too comfortable with their prescription drug coverage. Nearly 3 million of them with retiree coverage, including 39,000 residents of South Carolina will lose their coverage. This bill could force those who participate in the new Medicare drug benefit to move in between three separate plans, with three separate formularies, in 3 years.

It should come as no surprise that the authors of this convoluted mess and Karl Rove have decided to wait until after the 2004 election before this new benefit starts up and Medicare beneficiaries see what they are in for. Conferees could have taken a number of steps to address these deficiencies. Instead, they denied the government the ability to negotiate lower drug prices on behalf of all Medicare beneficiaries. This will impose a higher cost on both the taxpayers who foot this bill and the Medicare beneficiaries who will have to make higher copayments. They also created a $12 billion slush fund the government can use to entice private plans to participate against traditional Medicare and diverted $6.7 billion from the amounts saved by companies that will drop retiree coverage to create tax shelters for wealthy individuals. These funds could have been more appropriately spent providing incentives for companies to continue retiree coverage or reducing the size of the "doughnut." I also believe this bill is the first step toward the dismantling of Medicare. The "premiums support" demonstration contained in this legislation opens the door to the privatization of Medicare. Seniors in at least six parts of the country will be forced to either pay higher premium to remain in the traditional Medicare system or move into an HMO. This is unacceptable. Furthermore, this legislation provides an uneven playing field between traditional Medicare and private plans. I have always felt that if a private plan can offer a better benefit package to a beneficiary at an equal or lower cost, then beneficiaries should have the choice of which plan they want to participate in. This bill dramatically slants the playing field in favor of private plans. In addition to a 9 percent higher payment, private plans will have access to a $12 billion fund to further underwrite their costs. These actions undermine the traditional Medicare system generations of our seniors have come to depend on.

The flimsy prescription drug benefit and long-term damage done to Medicare contained in this legislation does not warrant its high price tag. I encourage my colleagues to defeat this bill, take up and pass S. 1926 to improve reimbursement for doctors, hospitals and rural providers, and continue to work toward a meaningful drug benefit.

The Medicare Prescription Drug and Modernization Act would make available a voluntary Medicare prescription plan for all seniors. If enacted, Medicare beneficiaries would have access to a discount card for prescription drug purchases starting in 2004. Projected savings from cards for consumers would range between 10 to 25 percent. A $600 subsidy would be applied to the card, offering additional assistance for low-income beneficiaries defined as 160 percent or below the Federal poverty level. Effective January 1, 2006, a new optional Medicare prescription drug benefit would be established under Medicare Part D.

This bill has the potential to make a dramatic difference for millions of Americans living with lower incomes and chronic health care needs. Low-income Medicare beneficiaries, who make up 44 percent of all Medicare beneficiaries, would be provided with prescription drug coverage with minimal out-of-pocket costs. In Pennsylvania, this benefit would be further enhanced by including the Prescription Assistance Contract for the Elderly, PACE, program which will work in coordination with Medicare to provide increased cost savings for low- income beneficiaries.

For Medical services, Medicare beneficiaries will have the freedom to remain in traditional fee-for-service Medicare, or enroll in a Health Maintenance Organization, HMO, or a Preferred Provider Organization, PPO, also called Medicare Advantage, These programs offer beneficiaries a wide choice of health care providers, while also coordinating health care effectively, especially for those with multiple chronic conditions. Medicare Advantage health plans would be required to offer at least the standard drug benefit, available through traditional fee- for-service Medicare.

We already know that there are many criticisms directed to this bill at various levels. Many would like to see the prescription drug program cover all of the costs without deductibles and without co-pays. There has been allocated in our budget plan $400 billion for prescription drug coverage. That is, obviously, a very substantial sum of money. There are a variety of formulas which could be worked out to utilize this funding. The current plan, depending upon levels of income has several levels of coverage from a deductible to almost full coverage under a catastrophic illness. One area of concern is the so-called "donut hole" which requires a recipient to pay the entire cost of drug coverage.

As I have reviewed these projections and analyses, it is hard to say where the line ought to be drawn. It is a value judgment as to what deductibles and what the co-pays ought to be and for whom. Though I am seriously troubled by the so-called donut hole, it is calculated to encourage people to take the medical care they really need, and be affordable for those with lower levels of income. Then, when the costs move into the catastrophic illness range, the plan would pay for nearly all of the medical costs.

I am pleased that this bill contains a number of improvements for the providers of health care to Medicare beneficiaries. Physicians who are scheduled to receive cuts in 2004 and 2005 will receive a 1.5 percent increase over that time. Moreover, rural health care providers will receive much needed increases in Medicare reimbursement through raises to disproportionate share hospitals and standardized amounts, and a decrease in the labor share in the Medicare reimbursement formula. Hospitals across Pennsylvania will benefit from upgrades to the hospital market basket update and increase in the indirect medical education. Furthermore, the bill will provide $900 million for hospitals in metropolitan statistical areas with high labor costs due to their close proximity to urban areas that provide a disproportionately high wage. These hospitals may apply for wage index reclassification for three years staring in 2004.

I would not that I do have concerns with this legislation with regard to oncological Medicare reimbursement and the premium support demonstration project for Medicare Part B coverage. Proposed reductions in the average wholesale price for oncological pharmaceuticals may have a grave effect on oncologists' ability to provide cancer care to Medicare Beneficiaries. Every Medicare beneficiary suffering from cancer should have access to oncologists that they desperately need. I will pay close attention to the effects that this provision has on the quality and availability of cancer care for beneficiaries and oncologists' ability to provide that care. Further, the premium support demonstration project for Medicare Part B premiums poses a concern. Some metropolitan areas may face up to a five percent higher premium for fee-for-service care than neighboring areas. While these provisions remain troublesome, we cannot let the perfect become the enemy of the good with this piece of legislation.

The Medicare Prescription Drug legislation has been worked on for many years. I believe this bill will provide a significant improvement to the vital health care seniors so urgently need. I congratulate the members of the conference committee including majority leader Frist, Senator Grassley, Chairman of the Finance Committee, and the ranking member, Senator Baucus, for the outstanding work which they have done on an extraordinarily complex bill.

Patrick Leahy

The creation of the Medicare program in 1965 was a tremendous accomplishment. With Medicare, older Americans would never again have to face a terrifying future with no health care coverage. And since that time, millions of elderly and disabled citizens have come to know and trust the quality health care that Medicare ensures them. But Medicare's success is marred by one significant factor: the lack of coverage for prescription drugs. When Medicare was created, prescription drugs did not hold the pivotal role that they now have in health care treatment and maintenance. Medical science has advanced since Medicare's charter was enacted, and senior and disabled Americans have been waiting a long time for Congress to remedy this gaping hole in coverage.

We need a meaningful prescription drug benefit under Medicare, and many of us have been pushing for years to accomplish that. This movement has steadily grown, and for 6 years we in this body have been debating and working toward this goal. In June of this year the Senate passed a bi-partisan prescription drug bill that I supported. I supported that bill -- even though I thought it was weaker than what we need -- because it was a solid start. And that is why it gives me grave concern to see the direction this conference report has taken.

We have before us eleven hundred pages -- which we have had little more than 3 days to examine -- that run far afield of the goal of adding a prescription drug benefit to Medicare. It concerns me that some of the provisions in this bill -- provisions which were never a part of the bill I supported in June -- will do more harm than good. I know that many of my colleagues worked long and hard to produce this bill. I respect their efforts and their best intentions, but Vermonters and Americans need and deserve far better than this. We passed a decent bipartisan bill once before this year. I know that we can do better than this compromise before us, and that is why I will be voting no. Instead of trying to rush through eleven hundred pages so that we can go home for Thanksgiving and adjourn for the year, I think that we need to keep working on this important issue until we get it right.

I am concerned that the measure before us moves Medicare down the road of privatization and does not adequately protect the access to the prescription drug benefit of rural seniors in traditional Medicare. I am concerned that fewer low-income seniors will be helped with their costs, and it troubles me that the need to bring down the ever- escalating costs of prescription drugs has not been addressed in this bill.

Under the conference agreement, a significant amount of money -- $12 billion -- is set aside in a slush fund for the Secretary of Health and Human Services to entice insurance companies into Medicare. The conference agreement also includes a proposal to experiment with privatization of the Medicare program in at least six areas of the country. This troubling provision could impose increased premiums for millions of seniors in traditional Medicare, potentially forcing them to leave the program that they know and trust. And making this experiment even worse, the Federal Government will overpay private plans -- putting Medicare at an unfair disadvantage -- to offer the same benefits that traditional Medicare covers for less. Why are all of these extra payments necessary? If the private insurance model is so effective and efficient, why do we need to pay them more than we pay for traditional Medicare? No one can credibly argue that doing this makes sense.

The reason that we needed Medicare in 1965, and the reason that we will continue to need Medicare in the future, is because the insurance model fails elderly and disabled people. It is not all that complicated. As we get older we inevitably get sick and we need to take more trips to the doctor and to the hospital to manage and maintain our health. This costs money, and the insurance companies know that they lose money when the bills have to be paid not occasionally, but frequently. Instead of sending billions of dollars to insurance companies, it is far better to use those resources to strengthen Medicare and to create a stronger and more reliable prescription drug benefit run directly by Medicare.

In the earlier Senate bill, I accepted that we could try this private delivery model for the prescription drug benefit because rural seniors in traditional Medicare -- this is all of the seniors in Vermont, by the way, because private plans have chosen not to operate in our rural state -- would be assured of having a choice of two stand-alone drug plans. And if those two plans did not exist in Vermont's region, then Vermonters in traditional Medicare would be guaranteed access to a standard government fall back plan. Unfortunately, this essential protection was weakened in the conference agreement. Instead, Vermonters will be considered to have adequate choice -- and therefore no access to the government fallback plan -- if there is only one stand- alone plan and one managed care plan. What kind of choice is that? The choice that Vermonters in traditional Medicare will have under that scenario is either to sign up for that one stand-alone plan that happens to be offered, or to forgo the new prescription drug benefit altogether. That doesn't sound like much of a choice at all.

I am also concerned about the impact that this bill will have on low- income Medicare beneficiaries. It is true that the bill provides generous subsidies to low-income seniors, but the earlier Senate bill covered more people: almost one million Americans who would have had access to a subsidy under that bill will not receive help with their premiums, deductible, and cost sharing under this bill. Three million more Americans will not qualify for help because they have minimal savings and other assets. In Vermont, that amounts to about seven thousand people who will be worse off under this agreement than under the Senate bill. Furthermore, thousands of Vermonters who currently have prescription drug coverage under the Medicaid program could end up with less generous coverage under this plan.

The real winner under this agreement is the drug industry. Many express concern over the high cost of creating a Medicare prescription drug benefit. I would suggest that we could have done something very simple to bring down the cost: We could have used Medicare's market power to negotiate lower prices for the medicines the program will be buying. Instead, this compromise agreement actually prohibits this common sense approach to cost containment. Thanks to objections by the drug industry, provisions designed to speed low-cost generic drugs to market were weakened in the conference agreement. And last, but certainly not least, the drug industry prevailed in their efforts to block a provision to allow Americans access to lower-priced medicines from Canada. This is unacceptable. A majority in the senate voted to allow re-importation and the House of Representatives overwhelmingly supported a strong re-importation provision. Somehow, the conference agreement is weaker than either provision passed in either body. How long do we intend to force Americans to continue to pay the highest prices in the world for their indispensable medications?

It is wrong to have hijacked this bill as a locomotive to pull the drug industry's baggage. House leaders have taken the industry's side over consumers' interests on issue after issue. They have given the industry a veto over giving Medicare the market leverage to bring down costs. They have done the drug industry's bidding by blocking drug reimportation. It is wrong to pad the drug industry's wallets at the expense of the seniors of Vermont and the Nation.

I remain concerned that cuts in payments for cancer drugs and services -- estimated to be in excess of $11 billion over the 10-year budget window -- threaten access to cancer care across the nation and particularly in rural area. And though the conference agreement does reduce the number of retirees likely to lose their employer-based coverage as a result of passing this bill from the Senate level, the Congressional Budget Office still estimates that close to three million retirees will lose their coverage. That number is still far too high and could affect thousands of Vermonters.

Finally, I question why we set aside $6 billion -- money that could be spent to reduce the troubling gaps in coverage under the prescription drug benefit -- to create Health Savings Accounts that have nothing to do with Medicare and that many analysts predict will boost the costs of comprehensive employer-based health insurance across the country.

I do credit this bill with some good provisions to provide increased payments to doctors and hospitals, particularly in rural areas. I fully support these provisions, but their inclusion cannot overcome the problems in the rest of the bill.

I hope that I am proven wrong about the impact that this bill will have on the Medicare program and on the help, or lack thereof, it will provide to Medicare beneficiaries. I think we can do better and that we must do better. As seniors learn over the course of the next 2-years what kind of coverage they will be getting -- as they see how complex the system ad the benefits are -- I predict that they will agree and that we will be returning to the drawing board very soon on prescription drugs.

I wish to thank one individual. We wonder from time to time about a bill of this magnitude. We want to be careful when we mention Senators we want to thank and are grateful toward. But I don't have any reluctance on this one, having been part of the process, having been part of our distinguished majority leader's life in the Senate before he was majority leader. There is no doubt in my mind when he came to the Senate and learned about Medicare, he made a commitment that he was going to be part of fixing it.

I believe if it is done right, history will have a lot of people we can thank for the Medicare modernization bill and the prescription drug bill for our seniors, but I think there will be one person who will stand out, and it will be the distinguished senior Senator from Tennessee, the majority leader.

He has not been here very long. I remember when he arrived. He joined the Budget Committee, the committee that I chaired, and he was at the very end of the committee because he was the least senior of all members. He moved up gradually, and then all of a sudden we all recall what happened, and he became majority leader.

He carried into that majority leadership, on his shoulders, in his brain, and in his ability to make commitments, the idea that there has to be a way to modernize Medicare and provide prescription drugs.

I do not want to let this record on this day close without the Senator from New Mexico -- who knows a little bit about this man, who served with him, worked with him, and understands him and is appreciative of the great talent he brought to the Senate when he joined us -- thanking him and recognizing his particular involvement in getting this job done.

It just seems as if we go months and years without any good news, and then good news comes in bushels. Today we have a bushel of good news. We passed this bill that our seniors have been asking for. It is amazing, the AARP supports it, and then the other side of the aisle, the Democrats who used to just crave having the AARP on their side, because the AARP found a bill that the Democrats don't like -- and I don't know whether they don't like it because it isn't theirs or it isn't good. I would say it is a tossup from what I can tell. Part of the Democrats don't think it is good, but part of them don't think it is good because it isn't theirs. They chose now even to blame the AARP; that there was something nefarious involved in the passage of this bill.

I hope the millions of people in the AARP understand what the Democrats are saying. They are truly accusing the AARP of having a conflict of interest that would cause them to support legislation that is not good for the senior citizens of America. That is it in a nutshell. It is an absolutely ludicrous accusation, but it has been done. It has been done because they saw the tide, and the tide was going in the direction they didn't like but the AARP liked.

Somehow or another, under the leadership of people such as Bill Frist, Republicans started coalescing around it. Because of the ability of people such as Chuck Grassley and our leader, Democrats joined in and we had some very exciting Democratic support. That is one great big basket of news sitting on the floor.

Mr. President, I have listened closely to the debate over providing prescription drugs and improving other benefits under the Medicare Program. This debate has not been limited to the last few days, as we all well know. This debate has been waged for 38 years.

Providing Americans with access to prescription drugs at an affordable cost has been one of the most vexing issues facing Congress in recent years. Many "solutions" have been offered to "fix" the problems of high cost and lack of access, and Congress has explored and debated various approaches. Of these approaches, providing a Medicare prescription drug benefit is the most important and perhaps the most challenging to accomplish.

For years, progress has been delayed over significant policy differences, not the least of which was the question of whether or not the Government could even afford to create a new and expensive entitlement program. But that question shifted and our debate this week wasn't focused on the question of whether the Government should provide a prescription drug benefit but rather on the details of how to structure a prescription drug benefit.

Last Congress I had the privilege to work with several of my Republican and Democratic colleagues in the Senate to develop a Medicare drug benefit program that became a key option in the "how to" debate. Our proposal, which became known as the tripartisan effort, embodied the principles that I believed must be part of a Medicare drug program.

First, the program must make a universal benefit available to all Medicare beneficiaries. It would be unfair to use much needed medicines as a carrot to lure seniors into managed care programs they don't want. We should also avoid providing a benefit only to the poorest of the poor and those with catastrophic costs. Virtually all seniors, regardless of income, need help to make their medicines either outright available or more affordable, and most have indicated a willingness to pay their fair share to support the program.

Second, the program must be comprehensive so that elders would have as generous a benefit as possible, from their initial spending to their catastrophic costs, and they shouldn't have to forego the best medicines for the cheapest ones just in the name of budget savings.

Third, a Medicare drug benefit must be affordable for both beneficiaries and the Government. Seniors should be able to get the best medicine available at the best possible price and the Government must derive the best cost savings through open competition. We should expect to realize as much savings in our pharmaceutical purchase for Medicare as foreign governments realize today.

Finally, for a drug benefit to be truly successful it must be sustainable. It will do little good to repeat the catastrophic failure of years past by beginning a program that we cannot carry on. That is why this must be a shared responsibility of beneficiaries and the Government. A program that combines seniors' contributions with a Government guarantee will have the best chance of enduring into the future.

Since last year, I have listened to the concerns of my colleagues, and I have weighed those concerns seriously. In the last few days of debate, I have given great consideration to the points raised by my colleagues and good friends in this body. I acknowledge their sentiments and I agree that this is not the bill I would have written if I had infinite resources to do it. This bill is not perfect. However, 38 years is just too long for American seniors to wait.

Turning this legislation away would have been a missed opportunity to provide seniors with the most significant modernization of their Medicare benefits since the program's inception in 1965. I believe this bill meets these four standards: It is universal, comprehensive, affordable, and sustainable. Could it be improved? Certainly. But this plan is a good compromise. It offers a respectable and responsible plan within the budget limitations we faced. It is a good compromise. I support this bill.

In addition, Medicare, instead of Medicaid, will now assume the prescription drug costs of 21,767 Vermont beneficiaries who are eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid. According to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, this will save Vermont $76 million over 8 years on prescription drug coverage for its Medicaid population.

This bill recognizes the high cost of providing quality care in rural settings and finally puts an end to years of unfair reimbursement gaps between rural providers and their urban counterparts. Specifically, this Medicare package provides $25 billion for rural providers, netting $41 million in additional funds for Vermont hospitals over the next 10 years and $18 million for underreimbursed physicians over the next 2 years.

I am also glad Chairman Grassley and Ranking Member Baucus have worked with me to address another inequity in the system. Critical access hospitals provide care in the some most underserved regions of Vermont as is the case throughout rural America. These hospitals are small yet serve as critical resources to their communities.

I am very pleased to see that the conferees retained a provision from the Senate measure that will allow critical access hospitals, like the Mount Ascutney Hospital in Windsor, VT, to expand access to psychiatric and rehabilitative services to the most vulnerable citizens in that community.

This bill contains a provision that will allow us to better understand how to provide quality health care, culminating several years of work in concert with Dr. Jack Wennberg at Dartmouth to measure care by the quality of patient outcomes rather than utilization of resources.

In closing, I especially want to salute the efforts of Senator Baucus, Senator Grassley, and Senator Breaux and the other without whose hard work and commitment to working through an agreement we would not have accomplished passage of this legislation and they deserve our accolades. I also thank several of my other colleagues who have contributed so much to this debate over the years. I have worked for more than 3 years with my good friends, Chairman Grassley and Senators Snowe, Breaux and Hatch. In many meetings over many months, we delved into the details of what came to be called the tripartisan bill. This has been one of the finest experiences of my many years in Congress. I am very proud to have been a part of that group and that our efforts led the way to our success today.

A bill such as this is the result of great effort on the part of many different people who are not elected to this body but upon whom we all rely. I would like to recognize the staff members who have worked so hard on this bill and deserve much of the credit for its successful passage.

On Senator Grassley's staff: Ted Tottman, Linda Fishman, Colin Roskey, Mark Hayes, Jennifer Bell, and Leah Kegler, and on Senator Baucus' staff Jeff Forbes, Liz Fowler, Jon Blum, Pat Bousliman, Kate Kirschgraber, and Andrea Cohen deserve considerable recognition for their tireless efforts. Catherine Finley, Tom Geier, and Carolyn Holmes from my friend Senator Snowe's staff; Patricia DeLoatche and Patricia Knight of Senator Hatch's office; and most especially Senator Breaux's legislative director Sarah Walters and his staff Michelle Easton and Paige Jennings deserve enormous credit for this bill.

On my own staff, I particularly want to recognize the contributions of Sherry Kaiman, Eric Silva, and especially Sean Donohue who took up the effort on the tripartisan bill and who has continued to see it through to today's success. Each and all have worked tirelessly to gather the input, analyze the issues, and build a consensus toward achieving this final product.

Mr. President, today, we stand at the precipice of opportunity. Culminating a decade of work, we have before us legislation that will forever change the face of Medicare -- providing every senior in America with a prescription drug benefit under a Medicare program that will experience the largest expansion in its 38- year history.

We would not have arrived at this day without the exceptional commitment made by Finance Chairman Grassley to advance this issue and meld the considerable political and policy differences that have marked the development of this bill. His efforts were nothing short of Herculean from the outset, and guided us through a challenging conference. He, as well as Ranking Member Baucus, have remained committed to the bipartisan principles that forged the Senate legislation, which garnered the support of 16 members of the Finance Committee, and a remarkable 76 members of the full Senate.

I want to recognize the outstanding leadership of the President -- who in 2001 challenged Congress to enact the Medicare Prescription drug benefit . . . propounded a set of principles . . . and has provided strong impetus during this "home stretch" for Congress to complete our work and send to his desk legislation he can sign this year. I know firsthand from my conversations with the President that this is a cornerstone of his agenda and absent his driving force we wouldn't be here today.

So, too, has the Majority Leader redoubled his longstanding and unflagging commitment to enacting into law a bipartisan bill, moving us ever closer to that goal. Thanks to the unique confluence of his skills . . . his unparalleled knowledge and grasp of the issue . . . and his single-mindedness of purpose, more than three quarters of the Senate came together to support S. 1, the Senate's prescription drug bill. And in bringing us to the eve of final passage of this conference report, he has been typically respectful of -- and responsive to -- all the wide- ranging concerns and recommendations voiced to him, and I thank him for his leadership and for guiding and shaping this process to its ultimate and successful conclusion.

I also want to extend my appreciation to my colleagues Senators Hatch, Breaux, and Jeffords, with whom I've worked so closely on a prescription drug benefit over the past 3 years -- they have been stalwarts in this fight and together we developed the template for the "tripartisan" proposal that helped frame the proposal before us. And certainly no one has more fiercely championed the cause than another colleague I've joined with in this battle in the past -- Senator Kennedy -- who I recognize does not support this conference report, but whose early, longstanding involvement and passionate policy advocacy unquestionably built momentum for this issue in Congress.

Finally, I want to thank my good friend and colleague, Ron Wyden, with whom I began my "prescription drug coverage journey" almost 6 years ago, when we developed the first bipartisan prescription drug coverage bill in the Senate, which established the principles that I believed were critical to shaping this bill.

We reached across the party isle because we recognized that only a bipartisan plan could ever "see the light of day". And we joined forces as members of the Budget Committee to establish in the 2001 budget a $40 billion, 5-year reserve fund. Well, look how far we've now come -- from the $370 billion tripartisan plan developed last year, to the historic passage of S. 1 in the Senate this past June.

But I can tell you from my own personal and professional experience that Congress' journey along this road has never been easy -- although it has been infinitely more arduous for America's seniors. The process has borne witness to a multiplicity of goals and philosophies across the spectrum.

Some have wanted to add a drug benefit to the existing Medicare program to leverage the purchasing power of 40 million seniors, while others have sought to use the issue either as a vehicle for the wholesale privatization of Medicare, or full-scale, Government administered benefits.

Yet, today, we essentially all agree we are well beyond one question -- the question of need. Therefore, it is imperative we acknowledge the reality that, just as the journey thus far has been imperiled by the "slings and arrows" of those on all sides of this issue, it will not become easier with the passage of time -- not when you're debating the creation of the largest domestic program in nominal terms ever.

We did have an optimal window for positive change just 2\1/2\ years ago when the Congressional Budget office was projecting surpluses "as far as the eye could see" -- about $5.6 trillion through 2011. Now, next year's deficit alone is projected at nearly $500 billion. That is how quickly the tide can turn. That is how quickly opportunities can be lost.

Just think -- a little over a year ago, the Senate was presented with a choice between a "tripartisan" plan that ensured coverage would be available to all seniors . . . was comprehensive, with the maximum benefit possible for lower-income seniors . . . and was a permanent part of the Medicare program -- and the alternative, which was temporary and would have "sunset" . . . and would have statutorily restricted access to drugs. Talk about lost opportunities! Indeed, those who are dissatisfied with what we have before us today should fondly recall that tripartisan bill, and lament its unfortunate demise.

So here we are. The conference report before us is the result of an attempt to balance the competing viewpoints not only among Members, but between the stunningly disparate House and Senate legislation. The simple truth is, while I continue to prefer the Senate bill, it is this conference report upon which we will vote. And after careful review, I have concluded that while it isn't everything it could be, it isn't everything it should be. In the end, millions of seniors will benefit over the stagnation of the status quo.

To quote AARP, "Enactment of this legislation is essential to strengthening health security for all Americans. This is an important step toward fulfilling a longstanding promise to older and disabled Americans and their families. While this legislation is not perfect, it will help millions of people, especially those with low incomes and high drug costs." Margaret Thatcher once said, "You may have to fight a battle more than once to win it." Well, some of us have been fighting this battle now for nearly 6 years. The bottom line is, we cannot hold hostage our seniors' futures to a political unwillingness to compromise. And this bill provides us with our best available opportunity to secure, for the first time, a legislative foothold that honors the same basic principles I have expounded upon since I first came to this issue -- That, in keeping with the basic tenets of Medicare, the prescription drug benefit must be universal, comprehensive, affordable, voluntary, permanent, and provide equal benefits across all plans. And that -- like the Senate bill and the tripartisan proposal before that -- it directs the most assistance toward those seniors with the lowest incomes . . . includes a reliable Government fallback of last resort . . . and continues to ensure seniors access to, and the stability of, the traditional Medicare program. In its totality, this conference report fulfills all of these principles.

In evaluating the individual components of the package, Mr. President, we should be mindful of how we arrived at this destination. As the Senate passed a bill with overwhelming bipartisan support, the House passed its bill with the most razor thin margin of just one vote -- and as we witnessed it passed the conference by a mere five vote margin, after an historic three hour vote held open to secure the necessary votes.

And we see the result in the starkest terms, reflected in the nature of the benefit designed out of necessity by the conferees. It includes aspects modeled after each bill -- the deductible was set at the House's lower level of $250 and the conferees worked to improve this proposal by offering a benefit with an actuarial value higher than the benefit from both bills. However, in providing these improvements concessions had to be made -- in doing so the Senate's $4,500 benefit cap was lowered to $2,250. But in the same respect the cost sharing provided under this cap was lowered from 50 percent provided for in the Senate bill to 25 percent. So as you can see, while not perfect this benefit represents the art of compromise.

Recognizing that this bill is not perfect, I find it imperative to note I was disappointed to see two provisions that I oppose are included in the conference report -- means testing of the Part B premium and indexing of the Part B deductible. The Senate-passed bill did not include language to means test the Part B premium and I successfully fought to defeat efforts on the Senate floor to add it. Unfortunately, the House bill did contain this concept and the conferees chose to include in it the conference report. And while the Senate bill did contain language to index the Part B deductible, I opposed this provision in the Finance Committee and had hoped it would be removed by the conferees.

But in recognizing the flaws of this proposal, at the same time, the conference report will at least get the federal "foot in the door" in providing a significant level of assistance to the one-out-of-four Americans who right now have no coverage whatsoever. Most seniors -- for a $35 monthly premium -- will save 50 percent on their cost of prescription drugs. For example, a senior who spends $3,600 will realize $1,714 annually in savings.

And in examining the assistance provided to the lowest income, I am relieved to know that the conferees utilized the model set by the Senate bill. Most critically, in keeping with the Senate bill, seniors with incomes below 150 percent of poverty who qualify for one of the low income categories will not experience a gap in coverage -- and will receive a generous level of assistance. This means that in Maine over 93,450 beneficiaries, or more than 40 percent of the Medicare population, will receive a generous benefit with no gap in coverage.

And while the Senate bill may have extended this coverage to a greater number of seniors, unlike the Senate bill, this proposal ensures that all seniors, even the so-called "dual eligibles" -- those who qualify for both the Medicare and Medicaid programs -- receive a Medicare drug benefit. This will "federalize" 47,100 beneficiaries in Maine and approximately 6 million nationally. This results in a savings of $161 million over eight years to the State of Maine. So, while this benefit does not achieve all that I would like, it has laid the foundation from which we can and must build in the future.

Yet, not only do seniors deserve a subsidy to help make prescription drugs more affordable, they should also have the benefit of choice when it comes to the coverage they purchase.

Because seniors shouldn't be limited in their options for coverage, we ensure that all seniors will have a choice of at least two privately delivered drug plans. Furthermore, all drug plans are required to offer access to two drugs from each therapeutic class and category. Not only does this provide seniors with options, it helps ensure they will receive the drug their doctor determines is the most appropriate.

And let us not forget, there was a time when it was proposed that if seniors desired prescription drug coverage, they would be obligated to enter an HMO. Well, thankfully -- and appropriately -- this conference report shuns the "one size fits all" philosophy of placing all seniors into managed care and maintains the critical protection of choice of ensuring seniors can remain in the Medicare program. Seniors absolutely should have the option of staying where they're comfortable -- without sacrificing guaranteed and equal prescription drug benefits.

Still others on the opposite end of the spectrum have said that the privately delivered stand-alone drug coverage option is doomed to fail -- that this type of plan doesn't exist in nature and insurance companies won't participate. However, this conference report includes key principles developed in the Senate bill -- including risk corridors, reinsurance and stabilization accounts -- which are intended to build a stable, productive model that I believe will attract and keep companies in the program.

Ultimately, however, there is no way to guarantee private companies will deliver services in every region of the country. Therefore, as we were developing the Senate bill, many of us who represent the 12 rural States in which no Medicare+Choice programs operate included a fall back of last resort -- which I'm pleased to say is sustained in this conference report. This key provision will serve to provide security to beneficiaries by knowing that no matter where they live, they will be assured of coverage even when private plans choose not to participate.

Throughout this debate, concerns have been voiced that with the enactment of a Medicare prescription drug benefit some employers will be provoked into reducing coverage that they offer to their former employees. Indeed, I have expressed concern about this issue throughout my six years of involvement in developing Medicare prescription drug legislation. And while I have concluded that we can take steps to mitigate the problem of employers ending coverage, I do not believe we can eliminate it.

That is because this bill is not causing employers to cease coverage -- in fact, from 1999 to 2002 -- prior to the enactment of a Medicare prescription drug benefit -- almost 10 percent of employers stopped offering retiree coverage. So this bill cannot be held responsible for this problem that exists regardless of the enactment of this bill. But we most definitely should use this bill as an opportunity to help reverse the trend of the last decade and offer incentives that will prompt employers to maintain their retiree benefits.

This conference report takes important steps toward alleviating the problem. Looking back to the development of the Senate bill, the Congressional Budget Office estimated that S. 1 would prompt 37 percent of employers to reduce the drug coverage they offer to their former employers. In comparison, the conference report includes a combination of options -- both policy and tax incentives -- that CBO, and most importantly employers, believe will provide incentives strong enough to encourage the maintenance of private sector coverage. It reduces the expected drop rate from the Senate bill's 37 percent to 16 percent; this means an additional 1.6 million seniors will retain their employer-sponsored coverage -- seniors who might have lost this coverage regardless of the outcome of this bill.

This proposal also takes vitally important steps to create better balance within the Medicare program to ensure that all providers, regardless of where they are located, receive adequate and appropriate payments. For too long, States like Maine, which ranks number 47 in Medicare reimbursement, have been underfunded simply because they are rural. This bill, thanks to the leadership and persistence of Chairman Grassley, finally brings Medicare payments into equilibrium.

This proposal provides an additional $25 billion over ten years to help States, like Maine, receive more equitable Medicare payments. Hospitals in Maine stand to gain an additional $125 million through payment improvements for our Disproportionate Share Hospitals (DSH), teaching hospitals, critical access hospitals and rural hospitals. Further, Maine's rural home health care providers will see increases to their reimbursement rates, along with rural ground and air ambulance providers to name just a few. And let us not forget our physicians. This bill reverses the 4.5 percent reimbursement cut expected for 2004 and provides an additional increase to payment rates for rural doctors, which together total more than $22 million.

I was especially pleased to have been able to work with the Chairman to add, in the Senate Finance Committee, a provision that would ensure the continuation of the country's rural health care residency training programs. This provision reiterated the Congress' intent to allow physicians to volunteer their time as supervisors of residents, and allowed programs to use Medicare funding to support these residents instead of utilizing funding provided by the community.

I added this provision in an effort to protect policy that I worked to include in the 1997 Balanced Budget Act, which, for the first time, allowed residency training programs to place their trainees outside of hospitals, most often in rural communities, and receive Medicare reimbursement. Unfortunately, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) recently tried to regulate around that law and prohibit programs from utilizing this option by making it so onerous that programs instead choose to move the residents back into the hospital instead of complying with the agency's new rules.

While I was able to include the corrective policy in the Senate- passed Medicare bill, some of the House conferees refused to maintain this critical Senate provision. But, working with the Chairman, who recognized the importance of this provision to rural States, I was able to secure support to provide a one-year moratorium that prohibits CMS from taking action against programs that allow physicians who supervise residents to volunteer their time. the provision also calls on the Secretary of Health and Human Services to perform a review of this issue and report to Congress on the impact to rural training programs if physicians are not allowed to volunteer their time as a supervisor.

Though the moratorium is helpful, it does not resolve the issue, and I, therefore, will continue to fight on behalf of these vital programs. I have introduced as a separate bill, S. 1897, which contains the language from the Senate-passed Medicare bill that will in fact protect these programs and ensure their continued viability.

This bill also includes a key provision that corrects an inequity that has disadvantaged millions of Medicare beneficiaries who suffer from cancer. This bill directs the Secretary to establish a 2 year transitional benefit in 2004 and 2005 utilizing at least $200 million to allow Medicare to cover all available oral anticancer treatments.

Currently, Medicare provides coverage of a limited number of oral anti-cancer drugs that originally were available in intravenous, IV, form. However, since Congress first expanded coverage to this limited type of oral anti-cancer treatments, the technology has advanced and many of the most innovative and effective drugs do not qualify for coverage because they did not evolve from the IV form. By including in the conference report authority for CMS to extend coverage to all oral cancer treatments, we ensure that in 2004 and 2005, prior to implementation of the comprehensive prescription drug benefit, seniors will have access to the best treatment options available.

The conference report before us, includes another noteworthy improvement to the Medicare program, one that will help make an important tool in the fight against breast cancer more accessible for women -- diagnostic mammography. This year alone, 211,300 women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with invasive breast cancer, and almost 40,000 will die from the disease. Yet, the FDA reports that the number of mammography facilities closing now number over 700 nationwide. These closures have led to longer waiting periods for women scheduling annual and follow-up mammography visits which could lead to delayed diagnosis and delayed treatment. This is not acceptable.

The bill before us includes provisions closing the gap between the Medicare reimbursement and the actual cost of diagnostic mammography by removing the reimbursement of diagnostic mammography performed in a hospital setting from the Ambulatory Payment Classification and placing the procedure in the Medicare Fee Schedule. This would bring the hospital technical number closer to the actual cost of the procedure, thus reducing the financial disincentive for hospitals to continue these services.

Having been the lead Republican cosponsor of this bill for a number of years, I am pleased the conference report before us today seeks to turn the tide on these closures as too many imaging facilities can no longer afford to offer these procedures due to low Medicare reimbursement.

One million additional women become age-eligible for screening mammography each year. This action will help ensure that these women will have access to the screening they need to detect and combat this disease earlier and, hopefully, with less invasive procedures. This inexpensive provision in the Medicare conference report could save countless lives, and I am pleased that it will be enacted into law along with the rest of this bill.

Finally -- and fortunately -- this conference report unquestionably represents the end of the House bill's open-ended efforts to move Medicare toward a national, privatized system through an untested, untried policy known as "premium support" that could have led to the patchwork delivery of health care that existed prior to the creation of Medicare in 1965.

This approach would have fostered wild fluctuations in premiums for the traditional Medicare program. Whereas, incredibly, Medicare now provides all seniors the same benefit for the same premium, under this proposal premium variations would have occurred not just from State to State, but within a State and even within a congressional district!

And you don't have to take my word for it. According to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid seniors living in Miami, FL, would pay $2,100 a year for traditional Medicare, compared to $900 that seniors would pay in Osceola for the same benefit. And when you compare this to North Carolina, the variation from State to State grows even wider with Rowan County, North Carolina paying just $750 for traditional Medicare. So let there be no mistake, this House-backed provision was a full frontal assault on traditional Medicare. Yet, according to CBO, this proposal that supporters touted as the savior of the program ultimately would have saved Medicare less than $1 billion.

I happen to believe that prescription drug legislation should be about providing seniors with a drug benefit. And while we certainly can consider and incorporate new policies that improve and enhance the underlying program. The drug benefit should not be used as what someone appropriately described as a "Trojan Horse" to open the door to the privatization of Medicare.
