Rep. Buddy Carter criticizes an AMA billing change for maternity care, arguing it could raise costs and burden providers.
Quiver AI Summary
Buddy Carter criticizes AMA policy: Rep. Buddy Carter said he sent a letter to the American Medical Association asking it to reverse a planned change to maternity billing. He argued the move could affect affordability for mothers and babies and increase administrative complexity.
Planned billing change set for 2027: The release says the AMA plans to replace bundled maternity care billing with individually billable services beginning Jan. 1, 2027. Carter said the change would be “a fundamental restructuring” of reimbursement and urged the AMA to reconsider before it takes effect.
House office cites concerns: The statement says unbundling maternity care could raise costs, create incentives for more services, and move care away from coordinated, value-based models. It also says Carter’s office views the current bundled system as simpler for billing and patient costs.
