AMDA Responds to Senate Finance Committee White Paper on Medicare Part B

AMDA recently submitted comments in response to the white paper released by the Senate Committee on Finance, “Bolstering Chronic Care through Physician Payment: Current Challenges and Policy Options in Medicare Part B.” The white paper explored the background of the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (PFS), including an overview of the PFS, its rate-setting methodology, the relative value units (RVU) system, and the PFS conversion factor (CF). The main portion of the white paper looked ahead to the policy challenges in treating chronic conditions and explored potential reforms to address these hurdles.
