Medical Access CMS Pilot Program

Several members of Congress (members, leadership from U.S. House and U.S. Senate) have come out recently in support of Medical Access’ new non-insurance model. U.S. Representative Alan Grayson (FL) is one of those members who has written a letter to CMS asking them to develop Medical Access’ model into a new pilot program.

In his letter, Representative Grayson writes “this unique payment system would advance the goal of providing full access to medical care for all Americans, decrease billing and coding requirements for physicians and hospitals, and transform the ways in which physicians and hospitals are compensated.” Representative Grayson concludes his letter by saying “ as you will discover, among the many worthwhile features of his proposal is the substantial reduction of opportunities for fraud within the system, the granting of greater independence for local doctors to deliver care best suited to their communities, its ability to almost any situation, and finally, the dramatic cost savings it will produce.”  The entire letter can be viewed on Medical Access’ website.
