Up to the minute news from the National Association of Rehabilitation
Providers and Agencies
Senate Passes Medicare Bill
By a vote of 54 to 44, the U.S. Senate just passed the Medicare
Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003. The
House had passed the conference report just before dawn on
Saturday. The legislation will now go to the President for his
signature. The details of the signing ceremony are not yet known.
The legislation includes a two year moratorium on the therapy caps,
a 1.5% increase in the physician fee schedule, and numerous
regulatory reforms of benefit to small providers. These are major
victories for rehabilitation providers and their patients. Happy
Thanksgiving! Regards, George
