Congressional Bill to Impact Labs
The AGT Government Affairs Committee wants you to know that Congress is working on a bill that could cause an estimated $2.7 billion dollars in cuts to the Medicare Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule. These cuts are on top of the huge 9% cuts we have already taken! Contact your Representative and Senators and tell them what the decrease in reimbursement means to you and the patients you serve:
-
Unable to offer a quality level of service
-
Unable to invest in new tests
-
Potential layoffs that will hurt your community's economic health, etc.
-
AGT has provided a sample letter and information on how to contact your congressmen and representatives.
AGT's postion statement on State Licensure of Laboratory Personnel is now available!
