House Government Funding Bill Gives Providers Relief on Medicare Advance Payments
09/24/2020
The House passed a short-term government funding bill that extends the deadline for providers to start repaying Medicare advance payment loans to the end of the COVID-19 public health emergency, according to a FierceHealthcare report.
The bill that the House passed late Tuesday is a major win for provider groups who worried they could struggle to repay the Medicare loans starting in August. The bill still has to pass through the GOP-controlled Senate.
