AHA Lists Alternatives to Medicare and Medicaid Cuts to Providers

Measures to curb federal spending by trimming Medicare and Medicaid payments are options in the current deficit reduction environment.

Efforts to further cut Medicare and Medicaid payments to providers jeopardize access to high quality healthcare services for America’s seniors and the poor. True entitlement reform and approaches to change the healthcare delivery system are needed – not provider cuts.
