CAP, AMA Ask Congress for 2025 Medicare Pay Fix

The CAP joined with the American Medical Association (AMA) and dozens of specialty and state medical societies in calling on congressional leadership to prevent a 2.8% cut to 2025 Medicare physician payment rates before the end of this year.

The coalition affirmed its support for a 1.8% payment rate increase for 2025, the groups said in a November 15 letter to House and Senate leaders. "By securing a positive update that aligns with a portion of rising practice expenses, Congress can provide essential stability for physicians in 2025 allowing time for comprehensive reform to the Medicare physician payment system to begin in earnest in the 119th Congress," the physician groups said.
