Summary of Bill HR 1769

Bill 118 HR 1769, also known as the Healthcare Freedom Act of 2023, is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress. The main goal of this bill is to provide Americans with more choices and control over their healthcare options.

The bill also includes provisions to reduce regulations on healthcare providers, with the goal of lowering costs and increasing access to care. Overall, the Healthcare Freedom Act of 2023 is focused on empowering individuals to make their own healthcare choices and reducing barriers to affordable care.
