Re: Support of H.R. 10073, the Medicare Patient Access and Practice Stabilization Act of 2024
Dear Representatives Murphy, Panetta, Miller-Meeks, Bera, Bucshon, Ruiz, Joyce, and Schrier:
As patient and physician advocates, the Alliance of Specialty Medicine (Alliance) writes in support of your legislation, H.R. 10073 the Medicare Patient Access and Practice Stabilization Act of 2024, which would eliminate the upcoming 2.8% Medicare physician fee schedule cut and provide an inflationary update for calendar year 2025.
The Alliance represents more than 100,000 specialty physicians and is deeply committed to improving access to specialty medical care through the advancement of sound health policy. The Alliance urges Congress to take immediate steps to stabilize Medicare physician reimbursements as proposed in the Medicare Patient Access and Practice Stabilization Act of 2024. Additionally, we appreciate your acknowledgement that a permanent solution is necessary to address the systemic issues with the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS).
