At AHA Advocacy event, Congress urged to provide relief from Medicare sequester cuts
Hundreds of hospital and health system leaders today participated in an AHA advocacy briefing to hear the latest on House and Senate bills that would extend the moratorium on the 2% Medicare sequester cuts, which are expected to resume on April 1 without additional congressional action.
Hospital and health system leaders urged their representatives and senators to support bills that would prevent the 2% cuts from going into effect during the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic.
