7 min read
Read the letter from 72 national organizations who wrote to Sens. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Chuck Schumer (D-NY), and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) urging the inclusion of several important Medicare and Medicaid provisions in the “Extenders” legislative package that is expected to be considered by December 20, 2019.
Taking the steps outlined in this letter will protect Medicare beneficiaries against further increases in out-of-pocket costs, improve enrollment, and extend critical Medicaid programs and funding for low-income Americans.
