    Doctors & Members of Congress Letter to Leadership

    December 3, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives H-232, U.S. Capitol H-204, U.S. Capitol Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader McCarthy: We urgently request that you address the impending cuts in the CY21 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule in any legislation moving through the House before the end of the year in an effort to avert yet another health care crisis. This week, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) released the CY21 Physician Fee Schedule (PFS) final rule. We appreciate the increased payments in the PFS to physicians delivering primary care and complex office-based care. Unfortunately, due to the budget neutral nature of the fee schedule, many specialists will now encounter severe reimbursement cuts starting on January 1, 2021. Health care providers have faced extensive challenges during the COVID-19 public health emergency. Following the COVID-19 public health emergency declaration, the U.S. Surgeon General and CMS urged the cancellation of all “non-essential” medical procedures. As some of our providers faced COVID-19 on the front lines, others were told to suspend the services that comprise most of their revenue. Health care providers are now facing financial distress that may lead to office closures or reduced staffing nationwide due to unprecedented low patient volumes. This will dramatically limit patient access to care during the public health emergency and beyond. Physician Members of Congress reached across the aisle to develop bipartisan solutions to address these upcoming reimbursement cuts, which would provide stability for health care providers as they respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.

    April 26, 2021 The Honorable Rosa DeLauro The Honorable Tom Cole Chairwoman Ranking Member U.S. House Subcommittee on Labor, Health U.S. House Appropriations Subcommittee and Human Services, Education and Related on Labor, Health and Human Services, Agencies Education and Related Agencies 2358-B Rayburn House Office Building 1016 Longworth House Office Building Washington, DC Washington, DC 20515 Chairwoman DeLauro and Ranking Member Cole, As you develop the Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations bill, we are writing to respectfully request that you provide robust funding for the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG). Recognizing the need to direct taxpayer resources to programs that can demonstrate a return on federal investments, quality child care - which has a strong evidence base - plays a crucial role in supporting children's healthy development, learning, and school readiness, while also enabling parents to work, train, or pursue an education. In this way, CCDBG not only improves future opportunities for children, but also invests in parents by supporting their ability to work and be successful. Prior to the coronavirus pandemic, families at every income level struggled to find and afford high-quality care, and less than twenty percent of eligible children received support through the CCDBG subsidy program. These challenges have only been exacerbated over the last year, and now, more than ever, access to affordable high-quality child care remains a barrier for many parents who wish to enter and remain in the workforce. Given the importance of this program to working families across the country and the fundamental role of child care in our economic recovery, there is a critical need for robust CCDBG funding.
