Klomp’s LinkedIn profile indicates that he is ‘Chief Counselor of HHS,’ ‘Deputy Administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services,’ ‘Director of the Center for Medicare, CMS,’ and ‘Senior Advisor to the Secretary, HHS.’ Trump praised Klomp’s experience building a successful business, saying it gave him the ‘toughness’ to drive major reforms, including the ‘Historic Most Favored Nation Drug Pricing Policy’ to stop foreign countries from ‘freeriding’ off the backs of the American people.
