Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader McCarthy:
We urgently request that you address the impending cuts in the CY21 Medicare Physician Fee
Schedule in any legislation moving through the House before the end of the year in an effort to
avert yet another health care crisis.
This week, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) released the CY21 Physician
Fee Schedule (PFS) final rule. We appreciate the increased payments in the PFS to physicians
delivering primary care and complex office-based care. Unfortunately, due to the budget neutral
nature of the fee schedule, many specialists will now encounter severe reimbursement cuts
starting on January 1, 2021.
