RECOVER Act of 2026

The RECOVER Act of 2026 seeks to eliminate a specific payment reduction under the Medicare program, directly affecting Medicare beneficiaries who receive multiple therapy services and the providers who furnish them. Currently, Medicare applies a 50% payment reduction when certain multiple therapy services are provided to a beneficiary on the same day. This bill amends existing law to eliminate that 50% reduction, changing it to 0 percent. This change applies to therapy services billed under the physician fee schedule, as well as outpatient and comprehensive outpatient rehabilitation services, and will take effect for services furnished on or after January 1, 2027.
