UUCM Member Jen Barnes is asking for your support, Telehealth for Medicare recipients will be discontinued March 31, 2025 unless Congress takes immediate action. It was supposed to have a two year renewal period but to stop a government shutdown it was only extended a few months past expiration on 12/31/2024. In Jen’s experience, once a regulation is lifted/policy shifts, commercial insurers tend to follow suit, so this could have an impact on Medicare Advantage patients and perhaps all of us at some point. This will have a significant negative impact on seniors and people with disabilities, particularly those without transportation or in rural areas. Click here to take action.
