The data the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) uses for clinical labor pricing hasn’t changed since 2002, negatively affecting primary care and other specialties that rely on clinical staff.

Speak out today to urge Congress to support the clinical labor pricing update and tell your members why this update is important for your practice!
