An Important Notice about Medicare
The ASA continues our work for Medicare advocacy, we recognize the widespread effects of the current administration’s legislative priorities, particularly the recently passed budget bill, which impacts families and individuals across the country. As a result, HR1667 is not expected to gain immediate traction with lawmakers at this time. With the upcoming Congressional summer recess, no advocacy meetings will be scheduled in the near future. The ASA Federal Advocacy Committee continues to monitor developments and will reach out when it is time to re-engage the profession.
