Oversight of Medicare Billing Code Cost Act
HR 7652, the Oversight of Medicare Billing Code Cost Act, requires the HHS Inspector General to study how Medicare adds, modifies, and removes billing codes used by healthcare providers to bill for services. The study will analyze data sources, trends in code changes, high-growth specialties, and CMS's monitoring of cost and outcome impacts. Within one year of enactment, the Inspector General must report findings and recommendations to Congress. Additionally, starting in 2024, HHS must annually publish reports listing new Medicare billing codes and their associated costs and usage volumes on its public website.
