Patient Access to Higher Quality Health Care Act of 2025

This bill, titled the "Patient Access to Higher Quality Health Care Act of 2025," seeks to repeal key provisions from the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 . Specifically, it targets Sections 6001 and 10601 of the ACA and Section 1106 of HCERA, aiming to revert these changes. These repealed sections had previously introduced modifications to the Medicare exception regarding the prohibition on certain physician referrals for hospitals, often referred to as the Stark Law. By repealing these provisions, the bill aims to restore the law to its state before these health care reform acts were enacted, thereby removing restrictions that limited the establishment and expansion of physician-owned hospitals under Medicare.
