Representatives Hern and Sewell introduced the Home Health Stabilization Act to improve Medicare funding for home health agencies.

Quiver AI Summary

Representatives Kevin Hern and Terri Sewell have introduced the Home Health Stabilization Act of 2025, aimed at establishing a sustainable payment system for Medicare Home Health Agencies (HHAs). This legislation seeks to ensure access to rehabilitative care and alleviate the financial pressures facing HHAs, which have been exacerbated by recent funding cuts.

The bill is a response to the closure of over 1,000 home health agencies since 2020, with nearly a third of patients unable to access necessary services. Hern emphasized the importance of home health for seniors, particularly in rural areas, while Sewell noted that the proposed cuts would significantly impact patients and their families.

The legislation has garnered support from industry leaders, who stress the critical nature of home health services in supporting older adults' care and the need for Congress to take action to prevent undesirable payment reductions, citing the importance of sustainable solutions for the Medicare program.
