No More Patches
AMA videos call for permanent SGR fix, not more patches. As the March 1 deadline approaches for Congress to prevent a 27 percent cut in Medicare physician payments, AMA has released online videos. These videos—one geared toward Congress and the other toward seniors—warn that temporary patches to the SGR threaten access to care and choice of physician for seniors while increasing taxpayer burden. Call the AMA's grassroots hotline today at (800) 833-6354 or email your members of Congress to protect patients.
