Postponement of Subcommittee Hearing on Patient Bill of Rights
Monday, July 16, 2001

Congresswoman Nancy L. Johnson (R-CT), Chairman of the Subcommittee on Health of the Committee on Ways and Means, today announced that because no floor votes are scheduled on the day of the hearing, and thus Members will not likely be present upon the scheduled hearing date, the Subcommittee hearing on Patient Bill of Rights, previously scheduled for Monday, July 16, 2001, at 4:00 p.m., in the main Committee hearing room, 1100 Longworth House Office Building, has been postponed and will be rescheduled at a later date.
