ALEXANDRIA, Virginia, Nov. 2 (TNSres) -- The American Medical Group Association issued the following news release on Nov. 1, 2024:
AMGA today objected to a looming 2.83% cut in the Medicare conversion factor. As finalized in the 2025 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, the cut may force AMGA members to lay off staff and clinicians, further exacerbating patient access to care; not accept new Medicare beneficiaries as patients; and delay investments in social drivers of health.
