Advocate to Stop Pending Medicare Cuts and PTA Supervision

We are only a few weeks away from the deadline to pass critical legislation to stop Medicare cuts. Congress is putting together large legislative packages, known as an omnibus bill, and we need to ensure that legislation that will address Medicare cuts and PTA supervision are included in these packages. Please take a few minutes to ask Congress to include the Supporting Medicare Providers Act (H.R. 8800) and the SMART Act (H.R. 5536) in any year-end legislative package.

Your constituent voice is important now more than ever. The inclusion of this legislation won’t happen if you, as the constituent, don’t ask for it.

Remember, advocacy only takes a minute or two to complete. The bipartisan bill now in the Senate would replace the direct supervision requirement for private practice with general supervision for PTA's. APTA really pushing this per number of emails asking to advocate just this month.
