APTQI Expresses Deep Concern About Payment Cuts to Specialty Services for CY2022

APTQI Expresses Deep Concern About Payment Cuts to Specialty Services for CY2022 The recently released Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS) Proposed Rule for CY2022 once again includes deep, across-the-board payment cuts to physical, occupational, and speech therapy despite bipartisan lawmaker and broad healthcare stakeholder opposition, The Alliance for Physical Therapy Quality and Innovation (APTQI) notes in a media release. These include a 3.5% cut to providers in CY2022, eventually adding up to a steep 9% payment cut by 2024. Since originally proposed and then implemented by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) on January 1, 2021, the APTQI has warned that continued cuts to specialty Medicare services will undermine the ability of vulnerable seniors to access the vital therapy services they need to manage their post-operative care, pain, immobility, and risk of falling.

Patient care under continued threat in proposed Medicare Physician Fee Schedule

Patient care under continued threat in proposed Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Surgical Care Coalition urges Congress to address systemic challenges to stop the annual reductions in patient care News provided by Share this article Share this article WASHINGTON, July 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/ The proposed Medicare Physician Fee Schedule for calendar year 2022 (CY2022) released today by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) fails to address pending cuts to surgical care and therefore continues to threaten patient care by reaffirming these previously imposed misguided cuts, argues the Surgical Care Coalition.  CMS is proposing to cut the Medicare conversion factor the basic starting point for calculating Medicare payments for CY2022 by 3.75%. This year s cut is reinstating the cut that Congress prevented last year, which further emphasizes the need for continued congressional intervention to protect patient care.
