Dear Representatives Bera and Bucshon,

On behalf of the undersigned organizations, representing over one million physician and non‐physician health care clinicians, we applaud the introduction of H.R. 8800, the Supporting Medicare Providers Act of 2022. This critical legislation provides a 4.42% positive adjustment to the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS) conversion factor (CF) for CY2023, thereby mitigating payment cuts within the MPFS that are anticipated to take effect on January 1, 2023. We look forward to working with you to ensure this legislation is enacted before the end of the year.
