SB 275 contains language that would remove protections against rate cuts for Home Health Agencies.  We need your voices to be loud and constant on this issue if we hope to be able to remove it from the bill.

In 2017, Chairman Tim Brown inserted this language in the budget to prevent FSSA from continuing to reduce Home Health rates.  Removing this protection clearly telegraphs to us that FSSA intends to reduce Home Health rates and access to Home Health at some point very soon, should this language pass.

If you have families that are available to participate, please pass along this advocacy alert to them and have them reach out to their legislators.

We need as many folks as possible to weigh in to protect this important safeguard against rate cuts.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Evan
