Sine Die yesterday-> end of Oregon's short leg session 2024. Several big bills we (&other physicians/healthcare orgs) advocated for passed and are on @GovTinaKotek's desk. Others got far & ran out of time-leaving room for interim work -> next session @ACPinternists Read on 👇🏼

.@RepLarryBucshon Thank you for your efforts to protect patient access to care and medical practices from #Medicare cuts. #StopTheFullCut

Larry Bucshon, MD@RepLarryBucshon

Now is the time for Congress to #StopTheFullCut by passing my bipartisan Supporting Medicare Providers Act to prevent Medicare reimbursement cuts from taking effect at the start of the new year.

We’ll said! #StopTheFullCut

🎶One of these things is not like the others (remember Sesame Street?). #Physicians face steep #Medicare cuts (despite record inflation) unless Congress acts to #StopTheFullCut! See @AmerMedicalAssn chart showing the disparity between physician payments & ALL other providers 👇
