RECOVER Act of 2026

This legislation aims to eliminate the existing payment reduction for specific multiple therapy services provided through the Medicare program. It proposes amendments to Title XVIII of the Social Security Act, specifically targeting the current 50 percent payment reduction applied to these services.

The bill impacts both the physician fee schedule and outpatient therapy services, including comprehensive outpatient rehabilitation services. Under the proposed changes, the payment reduction for these services will become 0 percent, effectively removing the previous cut. This elimination of the reduction is scheduled to take effect for all applicable services furnished on or after January 1, 2027.
