Dear Chairmen Brady and Roskam:
On behalf of the Medical Group Management Association (MGMA), I want to thank you for your recent letter to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, which draws on the extensive outreach undertaken as part of the Committee's "Medicare Red Tape Relief Initiative." MGMA supports the Committee's aim to reduce the regulatory burdens on Medicare providers that impede innovation, drive up costs, and stand in the way of delivering better care for Medicare beneficiaries.
MGMA is the premier association for professionals who lead medical practices. Since 1926, through data, advocacy and education, MGMA empowers medical group practices to create meaningful change in healthcare. With a membership of more than 40,000 medical practice administrators, executives, and leaders, MGMA represents more than 12,500 organizations of all sizes, types, structures, and specialties that deliver almost half of the healthcare in the United States.
