The Trump administration and G.O.P. lawmakers have proposed sizable reductions in Medicaid spending in part to find savings to pay for President Trump\u2019s tax-cut package.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dr. Oz, 64, has for years been a vocal proponent of Medicare Advantage, the private insurance plans for older Americans, despite federal inquiries and lawmakers\u2019 concerns that insurers have overbilled the government <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.medpac.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Mar25_MedPAC_Report_To_Congress_SEC.pdf\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">by tens of billions of dollars a year.<\/a> He promoted it on his TV show and acted as a broker for one company that sells the plan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">At his <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/14\/health\/dr-oz-senate-confirmation-medicaid-medicare-cms.html\" title=\"\">confirmation hearing before the Senate Finance Committee<\/a> last month, he seemed to acknowledge problems with Medicare Advantage, and tried to reassure senators that there was a \u201cnew sheriff in town.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Democrats on the committee grilled him at length about the potential steep cuts to Medicaid, which could result in a substantial number of people becoming ineligible for health coverage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In recent days, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has overseen <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/27\/us\/politics\/health-department-job-layoffs-rfk-jr.html\" title=\"\">deep cuts to the Health and Human Services Department<\/a>, including laying off roughly 10,000 employees on top of another 10,000 buyouts, retirements and departures early on in the new Trump administration.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The cutbacks also affect Dr. Oz\u2019s agency, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which has a budget of about $1.5 trillion in annual spending. Still, Dr. Oz has given few clues as to what if any changes he has planned.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dr. Oz\u2019s ability to secure enough votes for confirmation was up in the air until recently. Then, earlier this week Senator Josh Hawley, the Missouri Republican, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/24\/health\/dr-oz-medicare-finances-conflicts.html\" title=\"\">said he had decided to support his nomination<\/a> because Dr. Oz told him that he would no longer support transgender care for minors and was \u201cunequivocally pro-life.\u201d Mr. Hawley had publicly said he was withholding his support over Dr. Oz\u2019s previous positions on these issues.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Senators largely sidestepped <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/24\/health\/dr-oz-medicare-finances-conflicts.html\" title=\"\">criticism of Dr. Oz\u2019s extensive and often murky financial tie<\/a>s to companies he will oversee in his new position.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">He and his wife are wealthy. All told, his business and family ventures are valued <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/19\/health\/mehmet-oz-medicare-medicaid-stocks.html?searchResultPosition=3\" title=\"\">in the neighborhood of roughly $90 million to $335 million.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In an attempt to avoid conflicts, he announced in February he would sell his interest in more than 70 companies and investment funds.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">He has made tens of millions of dollars over the years pitching dietary supplements and promoting health-related companies on his television show.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The investments he said he planned to sell included stakes in UnitedHealth Group, the giant conglomerate that is the nation\u2019s largest provider of private Medicare plans; Inception Fertility Holdings, a privately held company that operates a chain of clinics; and Amazon, which has a vast reach that now includes an online pharmacy and sells myriad medical devices and equipment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In addition, he pledged to resign from various paid advisory jobs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Still, the breadth of his financial ties to countless health-related companies has prompted lawmakers and ethics experts to express doubts about his ability to be independent.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async
