Protect Telehealth & Clinician Reimbursement

On September 30, 2025, government funding will expire, and therapists and other clinicians will lose access to two critical Medicare policies.

1. Telehealth Flexibilities for Therapists

Telehealth for therapists, temporarily granted during the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency, has played a pivotal role in providing much needed rehabilitation services for Medicare beneficiaries, especially those in rural and underserved areas.

However, without Congressional action by September 30, 2025, these vital telehealth provisions will expire which could disrupt patient care and access to vital therapy services. It's crucial that we reach out to Congress to extend and make these telehealth flexibilities permanent.

2. Clinician Reimbursement

The 1.0 Work Geographic Practice Cost Index (GPCI) floor is part of the formula for Part B reimbursement, and without it, provider reimbursement could decrease. If Congress does not extend this provision, clinicians could face additional cuts in reimbursement.
