Premier calls on Congress to pass key healthcare legislation in 2024

January 10, 2024- Congress has began the second session of the 118th Congress, and Premier has sent a letter urging lawmakers to take action to protect Americans’ access to high-quality and cost-effective care by addressing pressing legislative healthcare priorities. Priorities include preventing impending Medicaid cuts, providing funding for community health centers, reauthorizing the Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Act, and more, including:

  • Preventing impending cuts to Medicaid disproportionate share hospital (DSH) payments that would exacerbate the intense financial pressures facing hospitals and threaten access for our most vulnerable populations;
  • Providing continued funding for community health centers as well as other expiring public health and workforce training programs;
  • Reinstating incentives under Medicare to support movement to alternative payment models that deliver high-value care for beneficiaries;
  • Continuing policies to prevent providers from being disenrolled in the 340B drug discount program;
  • Mitigating Medicare payment reductions to physicians and other key providers; and
  • Reauthorizing the Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Act (PAHPA).
