Summary

This bill aims to protect Medicare programs from certain budget cuts mandated by federal law. Specifically, it exempts Medicare from any reductions that would result from sequestration orders issued under the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010. The exemption applies only to sequestration attributable, in whole or in part, to the budgetary effects of the act commonly known as the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" (Public Law 119-21).
