Bipartisan Majority of House Members Support Stability in Physician Payments

The 新澳门六合彩官网® (新澳门六合彩官网®), in collaboration with an 新澳门六合彩官网-led broad coalition of physician and non-physician provider organizations, has successfully urged more than half of the members of Congress to sign on to a bipartisan letter to congressional leadership calling for legislative action to protect patient access to care by averting provider payment cuts associated with the 2022 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS) proposed rule.

新澳门六合彩官网 members have been reaching out to their lawmakers since early September, and fortunately, lawmakers are listening. The 新澳门六合彩官网 appreciates the continued leadership of the letter’s sponsors, U.S. Reps. Ami Bera, MD, and Larry Bucshon, MD, and looks forward to leveraging this strong partnership to ensure congressional leaders extend the 3.75% positive Medicare physician payment adjustment that is scheduled to expire Dec. 31. The final letter should be available in the coming days.
