EASE Act of 2025
HR 2437, the EASE Act of 2025, requires hospitals to provide specific information about available care options to Medicare patients upon discharge. The bill amends the Social Security Act to mandate that hospitals inform patients likely to need home health services, post-hospital extended care, or hospice care about the availability of those services through participating providers in their area. This applies to Medicare discharges occurring on or after January 1, 2026. The law directly affects Medicare beneficiaries discharged from hospitals who may require these specific post-discharge care services.
