ACTION NEEDED NOW!
New Focus on the Senate,
Contact Your U.S. Senator TODAY!
As we all have heard, on December 1st, 2020, CMS finalized the 2021 Part B payment (Physician Fee Schedule). This allows them to move forward with the offsetting cuts to codes that many medical professionals bill on behalf of their patients.

Specifically, these offsetting cuts include:
  • A 9% cut to outpatient PT and OT services, and a 6% cut to ST services for CY 2021;
  • Portable x-ray services (among others) is decreased by 6%; 
  • Cuts to physician and nurse practitioner services when billed in the nursing facility.

The fact that CMS is cutting services to nursing home patients
at this time is incomprehensible. 
Reliant will keep you up to date with any news or additional avenues of advocacy in the coming weeks.
The clock is ticking, but there is still time to
STOP THE CUTS!

These cuts are set go into effect on January 1, 2021.
Please contact your U.S. Senators today and urge them to include a legislative FIX to this disastrous CMS policy in any legislative package moving before the end of the year.
