Online Advocacy Campaign to Avert Medicare Cuts

The National Association for Home Care and Hospice (NAHC) has launched a new online advocacy campaign encouraging members and stakeholders to reach out to their Congressional delegations to ask that they enact legislative proposals to avert the impending Medicare cuts slated for January 1, 2022. They have also sent a letter to Congressional leaders requesting they address this critical issue before year’s end (see letter HERE) 

Absent additional congressional action, a combined 6% Medicare cut is scheduled to take effect the first of the new year. This is a result of the re-imposition of the across-the-board 2% sequestration cuts, as well as an additional 4% cut that was triggered because of the budgetary impacts of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (the so-called “PAYGO” requirement cuts).
