Senate Minority Whip John Thune (R-S.D.) and Sens. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.), Mark Warner (D-Va.), and Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) announced their intent to develop long-term fixes to issues with Medicare’s physician payment structure and to update the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act.

“Further action is needed to address reimbursement challenges and shift toward a system that aligns payment incentives with patient outcomes,” they said in a written statement.
