- Take Action: Urge Congress to Stop 2024 Medicare Cuts
On the heels of a successful 2023 Hill Day that saw nearly 100 CAP members meet with 145 congressional offices, pathologists have amassed tangible legislative momentum — but we need to build on that by continuing to contact legislators.
Last year we fought against Medicare cuts to your pathology payments, but these increased cuts are threatening your pay once again. It is time to answer the call and fight back.
Absent congressional action, pathologists will face a 6.5% cut in 2024 to help fund payment increases for evaluation and management (E/M) services. These cuts combined with the lack of an inflationary update to the Medicare Economic Index represent significant negative financial factors.
