Congressman Earl L. "Buddy" Carter (Ga-01) has been named a "Champion of Healthcare Innovation" by the Healthcare Leadership Council. The award recognizes lawmakers working to support patient-centered medial progress.

"As the only pharmacist in Congress, I have seen the devastating hits our healthcare system has taken in recent years," Carter said. "Obamacare is driving up costs, taking away choices, and putting bureaucrats between patients and their health care providers. I remain diligent in my fight to repeal the law and replace it with market-oriented solutions that get government out of the way of more affordable, accessible, and patient-centered health care. I am honored to receive this award that recognizes this fight." 

The Healthcare Leadership Council (HLC) is a coalition of leaders of the nation’s premier health care companies and organizations.
