John,



It’s a colossal waste of your money.



I’m talking about the policy that directs Medicare to pay hospital doctors
more for the exact same service than it pays independent doctors – even if the
service isn’t provided at the hospital. This policy weakens Medicare
financially. It also leads to hospitals buying up independent practices, so
they can get these higher payments. That leads to higher costs for everyone,
not just those on Medicare.


Fortunately, there is a bill in Congress to end the dishonest billing. This
bill would stop Medicare from paying hospital doctors an inflated price

. Instead, Medicare would pay hospital doctors the same as independent doctors.
In other words, the bill would make Medicare payments “site neutral.”



According to the experts at the nonpartisan Committee for a Responsible
Federal Budget
<[link removed]>
, adopting site-neutral payments would:

* reduce total national health expenditures by up to $458 billion,
* reduce commercial premiums by up to $386 billion,
* reduce patient cost sharing by $73 billion, and
* reduce the federal budget deficit by up to $117 billion.
You read that right. By ending the dishonest billing, the site-neutral
legislation would reduce healthcare expenditures in American by almost half a
trillion dollars.


Yet special interests are out to make sure this bill doesn’t see the light of
day.


Tell Congress: You Support Site-Neutral Payments
<[link removed]>





It’s time Congress listened to you, not the special interests! Will you
contact your elected officials and urge them to support site-neutral payments
for Medicare?


Congress can bring down healthcare prices for all Americans, relieve stress on
American families, and reduce the out-of-control government spending that is
driving inflation. Let them hear from you!






Best,



Dean Clancy
