Access to Genetic Counselor Services Act of 2025

This bill expands Medicare coverage to include genetic counseling services provided by licensed or certified genetic counselors, effective January 1, 2027. It defines "covered genetic counseling services" as those furnished by qualified counselors under state law or certification, with payments set at 80% of the lesser of the actual charge or 85% of the physician fee schedule. Medicare beneficiaries seeking genetic counseling will gain access to these services through covered providers, while preventing balance billing for these specific services. The bill does not restrict physicians from billing for similar services under existing Medicare rules.
