Urgent! Impending Medicare Physician Payment Cuts: Take the Impact Survey

For four consecutive years, Medicare providers have experienced annual payment cuts, while the costs of maintaining a practice and healthcare facilities have increased annually. Another 2.8% payment cut is scheduled for 2025, and practice costs are projected to increase by 3.56% over the next year.

The North Carolina Medical Society continues to engage with members of Congress to find a solution to the growing crisis resulting from these devastating cuts, and we urgently need your assistance in that effort. Help us make our outreach on Capitol Hill more impactful by sharing information on how previous and anticipated cuts have and will affect your practice and your patients. 

Please respond to this survey by November 22, 2024. Please also help this effort by circulating this notice and survey with your colleagues. The more responses we receive, the stronger our message.

NOTE: At the end of the survey, NCMS asks for your contact information.  That information will not be shared in any distribution of the survey results without your explicit permission. NCMS need s practice/contact information to avoid duplicate entries of responses, since the survey notice will be sent through multiple channels and could generate more than one reply from a practice. NCMS especially needs home addresses, which is how individuals' members of Congress are identified. This will enable us to quantify and qualify the impact of Medicare cuts geographically. NCMS respect the confidentiality of your information.
