Biden Signs Omnibus Bill Impacting Physician Payment for 2023

Dec 28, 2022, 15:15 PM by Christina Ghanayem

On December 23, President Biden signed the $1.7 trillion omnibus bill originally introduced December 20.  As your Academy previously shared, this legislation included only partial relief from the scheduled cuts to the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS) Conversion Factor for 2023.  Academy staff will work to update payment rate information for physiatry services once the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services releases final MPFS information.  Updated content will be made available on the AAPM&R MPFS website.  Staff is also reviewing several other healthcare-related components of the legislation and will share additional information in future news stories.  If you have any questions, please contact healthpolicy@aapmr.org.
