Preventing Racism in Medicare Act of 2024

HR 7207, the Preventing Racism in Medicare Act of 2024, prohibits the Medicare program from counting the development of anti-racism plans as qualifying "clinical practice improvement activities" under Medicare rules. The bill amends existing law to explicitly exclude such activities - defined by a 2021 Medicare rule - from meeting requirements for quality improvement programs. This directly affects Medicare providers and suppliers who previously might have used anti-racism planning to fulfill these quality improvement obligations. The change is a technical adjustment to Medicare payment policy, not a new program or benefit.
