MedPAC wants Congress to increase hospitals and clinicians' 2024 Medicare payment rates.
Commissioners hashed out draft payment recommendations for providers in a marathon two-day meeting last week.The advisory agency looks poised to recommend that Congress increase Medicare payment to hospitals by 1% over what the law prescribes.
MedPAC is also likely to recommend a pay boost for clinicians paid through the physician fee schedule and larger increases for providers caring for low-income traditional Medicare patients. MedPAC doesn't often recommend pay increases for hospitals or clinicians. Rising costs factored into the 2024 draft recommendations, staff said during the meeting.
Commissioners acknowledged that the nursing home industry has been through a tough couple of years. But they largely supported the recommendation, given MedPAC's mandate to examine access to care, quality of care, availability of capital and provider costs in the sector.
