Campaign Unavailable
We're sorry, this alert is no longer available.
If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit
ASH Grassroots Network.
The short explanation of this alert was:
Urge your U.S. Representative and Senators to co-sponsor "The Preserving Patient Access to Physicians Act of 2005" (H.R. 2356/S. 1081).
H.R. 2356/S. 1081 would prevent the impending Medicare physician payment cuts by replacing the Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR). This legislation calls for Medicare to increase physician payments by at least 2.7% in 2006 and 2.6% (est.) in 2007.
If Congress does not act soon, Medicare will cut physician reimbursements by 26% over the next six years – including a 4.3% cut in January 2006.
