The American Association of Clinical Urology, Inc, Inc. has been working hard for years to ensure that urologists are compensated fairly. We are continuing this fight in 2024 by strongly supporting H.R. 6683 titled the “Preserving Seniors’ Access to Physicians Act of 2023.” This bill is sponsored by Congressman Murphy (R-NC).
H.R. 6683 would eliminate the 3.37% cut to the Medicare physician payment, which took effect on January 1, 2024. AACU believes that this legislation would stop the steady erosion of financial harm that many urologists experience daily. Enacting this bill will allow urologists and our collective community of physicians to continue caring for all of our beneficiaries, while working at the top of our licenses.
We look forward to working with Congressman Murphy and other policymakers to move physician reimbursement forward in a positive direction.
