Briefly -
At the end of April, 2023, the House held two healthcare-related hearings.
###
The first was on CMS, and featured lengthy testimony and Q&A with CMS administrator Brooks-Lasure.
The April 26, 2023, hearing website (with links to YouTube video) is here. The full title was, "Lowering Unaffordable Costs: Legislative Solutions to Increase Transparency and Competition in Health Care." The full hearing ran 5 hours per the YouTube video. The hearing page includes links to numerous pieces of early-draft or introduced legislation.
For this hearing I include a 90-page "auto transcript" in the cloud - here. For example, while Brooks-Lasure testimony didn't mention "Alzheimer," that word occurs 41 times in the auto transcript (in connection with Medicare coverage for new Alzheimer drugs.)

The second hearing is, “Antimicrobial Resistance: Examining an Emerging Public Health Threat” and was held on April 28, 2023. Find the Hill web page here. The YouTube archive video is 2 hours long.
Testimony included Kevin Outterson, executive director of CARB-X, and Amanda Jezek, SVP for public policy at Infectious Disease Society of America / IDSA.
