Stopping pay cuts to pathologists in 30 seconds

12/09/2025
Advocacy Update

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) planned “efficiency adjustment” in the Medicare Fee Schedule final rule will reduce pathology payments by 2.5% in 2026. In just 30 seconds, you can take action to stop it.

Use your voice before the end of the year to tell Congress to stop the cuts

Watch: Diana M. Cardona, MD, MBA, FCAP, discuss the effects of the efficiency adjustment and how to protect access to pathology services.

The bottom line: When pathologists speak up, Congress listens. Every action alert you send strengthens the specialty and access to accurate, timely diagnoses.
