(Bloomberg) -- U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price wouldn’t say whether the Trump administration still supports repeal of the Affordable Care Act, days after his party’s efforts to overhaul the law broke down.
“We find ourselves right now in a position that the current system is not working,” Price said Wednesday in a House subcommittee hearing, when asked repeatedly whether the administration is aiming to repeal the ACA. “We have to fix the problem.”
Price and other members of the administration will play a crucial role in the success or failure of the ACA, also known as Obamacare, over the coming year.
