🔬Traditional treatments for multiple sclerosis (MS) can help mitigate a patient’s symptoms or keep them from returning. Now, new NIH-funded research suggests that a modified drug historically used for treating HIV and Hepatitis B could potentially reverse the disease’s effects. Learn more ➡️ bit.ly/4rwr37x

Clinical trials still move like it’s 1995. A decade of waiting, $1–2 billion spent, and a 90%+ failure rate on a clunky, fragmented system. ARPA-H’s SURPASS program is rethinking the entire clinical trial model. Adaptive platforms, predictive models, real-time analysis, and AI will make trials faster and cheaper so treatments reach patients years earlier. Ready to stop waiting?

President Trump and @SecKennedy are committed to rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse — because every dollar lost to fraud is a dollar that could be helping Americans who need it. HHS has uncovered nearly $100 billion in fraud, saved more than $46.1 billion, and clawed back $30.5 billion. Track the Administration’s efforts to combat fraud: whitehouse.gov/fraud/

As National Recovery Month ends, we celebrate @POTUS’ work healing addiction through community and long-term recovery. HUD’s Treatment First playbook prioritizes care for addiction and mental illness so vulnerable Americans can live self-sufficient, drug-free lives.

VP Vance on fighting fraud: "Think about all your viewers who paid into Medicare their entire lives. That program will not exist if we give health care benefits that should go to American citizens to illegal fraudsters. But that's what happened under the Democrats."

Today, we approved the first heart valve device designed to grow with children. The Autus Size-Adjustable Valve, a surgically implanted pulmonary heart valve for pediatric patients with congenital pulmonary valve disease can be expanded after surgery to keep pace with growth. The adjustable valve may mean fewer repeat surgeries for children as they get older. fda.gov/news-events/press-an… Congenital heart defects are among the most common types of birth defects in the United States, affecting about 1 in every 100 births. The valve was approved through the premarket approval pathway, the FDA's most rigorous review process for medical devices.

Real Innovation. Real Results. 🇺🇸 Under the leadership of @POTUS and @SecKennedy, rural Americans will no longer be forgotten. @ARPA_H's MARCUS is bringing cutting-edge care directly to rural communities — because your ZIP code shouldn’t determine the quality of care you receive.
Your ZIP code shout not determine how long you live. . ARPA-H’s PARADIGM program is closing that gap with MARCUS, a new mobile care platform built for rural communities. Developed by @missionmobileNC, MARCUS supports modules for dialysis, cancer treatment, OB/GYN care, and more. Advanced medicine, delivered on the road.

The previous administration weakened safeguards around the ACA marketplace and allowed bad actors to flood in. That’s why @VP Vance’s @WHFraudTF took swift action and EVICTED 760,000 phantom enrollees tied to agents or brokers — cases where enrollees had no SSN, paid $0 in premiums, filed no claims, and never responded when insurers tried to verify their coverage. The War on Fraud continues.

.@SecKennedy on how the @ARPA_H projects announced today will keep the United States competitive for clinical research: âś… New technology to be more predictive and careful in less time âś… Elimination of delays and duplications which do not improve safety or science âś… Reuseable infrastructure that allows more American sites to conduct trials outside of major medical centers
Today in Austin, Texas, @SecKennedy joined @ARPA_H to unveil bold new initiatives aimed at transforming how clinical trials are conducted across the United States and retain biomedical research. “It’s not just economic benefits that we’re losing; it’s the control of our healthcare, of our health. Our international leadership in biomedical research…We cannot afford to lose it.”

Fraud has no place in health care. That's why @VP Vance and @DrOzCMS are uprooting fraud and saving American taxpayers BILLIONS. âś… $2.2 BILLION taxpayer dollars saved âś… 760,000 phantom enrollments removed
Removing the fraud from the ACA Marketplace isn’t just a fiscally smart action for CMS to take — it’s the right one. CMS and @VP Vance’s @WHFraudTF are saving taxpayers $2.2 BILLION by removing phantom enrollees and bringing trust back into our healthcare programs.
