WASHINGTON – AAHomecare urges members to reach out to lawmakers over the next two weeks to prime the pump for its upcoming Leadership Legislative Fly-In on May 15, when more than 50 AAHomecare board & council leaders are set to meet with about 140 offices in the House of Representatives and the Senate. Advocates will discuss a range of issues, including Medicare reimbursement policy – specifically, the need to pass 75/25 relief legislation that has moved through House and Senate committees but was not included in recent spending bills. “Calls and emails to health care staff for your senators and representatives over the next two weeks can be a force multiplier for those upcoming in-person meetings set for Capitol Hill,” the association said in a bulletin. The message is simple: Ask your Senators and Representatives to reach out to leadership in their respective chambers in support of extending the 75/25 Medicare blended rates for DME in non-rural areas through 2024 as soon as possible.”
