Target: Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer
Goal: Stop cuts to the Medicare program from going into effect.
Looming cuts to the Medicare program could create serious problems when it comes to patient access. Physicians are facing payment cuts of nearly 10% if nothing is done, which would directly impact Medicare patients’ ability to access the care they need. And all this comes at a time when patients face challenges accessing care due to the COVID-19 pandemic and physician practices are recovering from the impacts of the crisis.
Fortunately, a bipartisan solution is coming together under the leadership of Representatives Ami Bera, MD (D-CA) and Larry Bucshon, MD (R-IN), with the goal of stopping these disastrous cuts before it’s too late.
Make sure that Congress works together with Reps. Bera and Bucshon to lay the groundwork for a positive solution. It will be critical to draft meaningful legislation to stop cuts to the Medicare program from going into effect. Please tell them that the financial uncertainty within the Medicare payment system and the danger physician cuts could have on patient care is simply unacceptable. Tell them to join with Reps. Bera and Bucshon to draft and pass a bill that will stop these cuts before the end of the year!
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Senator Schumer,
A lot of work needs to be done to avert looming cuts in the Medicare system. In a perfect storm of events, payment reductions are going into effect on January 1, 2022, while physician practices face Medicare cuts that amount to a nearly 10% pay cut. The result of Congress’ inaction on this issue would be catastrophic.
Recently, Representatives Ami Bera, MD (D-CA) and Larry Bucshon, MD (R-IN), came together with the goal of stopping these cuts and ending the uncertainty within the Medicare system. In the next few weeks, it will be critical for Congress to come together to find a meaningful solution.
Millions of U.S patients will be directly impacted by less access to Medicare, so please show your support for America’s physicians and patients by helping to draft and then pass a bill that will stop these cuts before the end of the year.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

The Biden administration is truly an evil administration. Biden is a type for the Antichrist comes in claiming peace peace peace but then he brings nothing but terror he will not do anything good for anybody except for other countries if it were his choice he would probably cut Medicare and all benefits all together for the American people. Biden is truly an evil man committed to ungodly and unjustly causes
