HR 1666 United States House · 118th Congress

Protecting Access to Ground Ambulance Medical Services Act of 2023

HR 1666 extends deadlines for ambulance service reimbursement rules under Medicare. It amends Section 1834(l) of the Social Security Act by changing dates from 2025 to 2028 in two specific provisions: paragraph (12)(A) and paragraph (13)(A). This delay gives ambulance providers additional time to adjust to existing Medicare payment rules. The bill directly affects Medicare-certified ambulance services and the patients relying on ground ambulance care covered by Medicare.
