The ACR has long urged Congress to work towards long-term, sustainable reforms to Medicare physician reimbursement and applauds the introduction of the Medicare Patient Access and Practice Stabilization Act of 2025. This bipartisan bill would mitigate the harmful 2.8% cut in the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS) implemented on January 1.
This legislation, led by Representatives Greg Murphy, M.D. (R-NC) and Jimmy Panetta (D-CA), also includes a 2% payment update to help stabilize the healthcare system amidst decades of cumulative cuts and rising costs.
Please contact your member of Congress and urge them co-sponsor this legislation to mitigate continual cuts to Medicare reimbursement. Take a moment to send your letter today!
