Former Trump officials praise lawsuit against AMA to further healthcare transparency

Former Trump administration officials support a lawsuit against the American Medical Association to provide free public access to Current Procedural Terminology codes, promoting healthcare price transparency as committed by President Trump.
The lawsuit filed by PatientRightsAdvocate.org aims to remove barriers restricting free access to billing codes, helping patients and employers better understand healthcare prices.
The lawsuit requests the court to rule that charging the public for access to standards included in federal and state law is not permissible.
Supporters argue that transparency is needed in how CPT codes are created and controlled, emphasizing that commercial interests should not override patients' needs.
