Dear Representatives Burgess and Rush:

On behalf of the undersigned organizations, thank you for your leadership in introducing H.R. 8505, a bill to prevent pending Medicare payment cuts by waiving the budget neutrality requirements stipulated in Section 1848(c)(2) of the Social Security Act for the finalized evaluation and management (E/M) code proposal slated for implementation on January 1, 2021. This important legislation will provide a critical reprieve for a broad scope of physician and non-physician health care providers facing substantial payment reductions in the coming months.
