Matheson Questions Price Tag of House Health Bill

Politico's Glenn Thrush reports that Rep. Jim Matheson and other Blue Dog Democrats "have sent a long list of detailed questions to the Congressional Budget Office in hopes of determining if HR 3962 passes pay-go muster. Their main concern: Whether House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's bill 'bends the cost curve' and achieves promised savings through lower premiums, reducing waste-fraud-abuse and by controlling lawsuits and defensive medicine."
